What he said.

Five albums now and not one that was less than "good".

Great album that reveals itself over a bit of time. It is very different from Hate or The Great Eastern so it took a while to warm up to it. It’s a pop album for them because they took away the effects but not really all that pop. I think it will alienate some of their more recent fans but that is too bad because it’s really a great album. These last three album have been very rewarding and make them one of the better bands of the 2000’s, IMO.

Listen to again last night and might have crashed my top ten party.

Yeah, I do....

But not loving UA as much so as I did, 'Hate'. That album simply engulfed my existence.

So, anything they did after that was gonna be smewhat of a letdown....
but UA is still wonderful and deserves to be in any collection.

I still like The Great Eastern the best, but I really like Universal Audio---liked it from the first listen.

Update: I decided against universal audio and picked up 'Hate' today at lunch on Katie's recomendation. It better be good Katie or else I'm coming to NY and drinking beer and hanging out for a week with you and Aaron, etc.
