Man, I haven't thought about them in a long time. What have they been up to since 'One Time Bells'?

Thanks for the info, Timis.

I loved Trial of the Century. VERY '80s, but in the best way possible.

This album has been a pleasant surprise. I've never really cared for their stuff that much and I was completely indifferent on them live when I saw them open for the Walkmen 2-3 years ago.

Something very familiar about it. Maybe it's the great weather we're having down here right now but it's 60's sunny folk and 70's fm vibe is suiting the mood these days. Just a really pleasant record.

ended up going to see these guys a couple of weeks ago and they were great...real friendly too. I like the new record too even after previously writing them off.

This is another album that hasn't gotten enough praise. It's been a pleasant surprise.
