New eight song EP. It was originally only available at live dates, but you can pick it up through the Arts & Crafts website now.

This is more in line with what they sound like live. The last record was recorded a couple of years ago before a couple of the newer members joined, so this is a glimpse of how they sound now.

I said, in reference to their last album, that they sound kind of like Broken Social Scene, Jr.

They're on the same label as BSS, Stars, Feist, etc.


Aside from those acts, I guess they could be compared to Death Cab or The Long Winters. The Flaming Lips at times. I'm not too good at this.

Yeah, the Social Scenesters are probably most accurate, though they predominantly tour with Stars.

Bump because I finally got my physical copy in the mail. For free from the guitarist, no less.

So it sounds pretty awesome on a stereo as well. It's not as immediately great as the last one but it gets better with repeated plays. Much like the BSS self-titled.

Reminds of Sigur Ros at times, too, for some reason.

I wasn't too crazy about their full length. A bit too polished for my tastes.

Ooh, I kinda like this. I never checked out their full-lenth. I have to give this one a few more spins before I pass final judgment, though.

Umm... well... the title track sounds like Death Cab For Cutie. A bit sugary.
