...is sounding real good right now, but at the same rate, it sounds like something off of the Disney channel or some shit.

does that make sense?

anyone else into this album?

I've almost been tempted to buy this thing a few times

Both singles, Sleepyhead and The Reeling are just incredibly catchy.

PASTE slobbered all over this which piqued my interest but for some reason "electro-pop" sends up red flags for me.

yeah, it's insanely catchy, and yes, very poppy.

hmmm, would not classify it as electro pop though.

i'd say if you were up for giving MGMT a listen, there's no reason to not give this one a try.

That's a loose comparison, but one that works. The only difference is the singer's falsetto vocals might be annoying to some.

they sound like a combo of MGMT and Architecture In Helsinki, maybe a little Hot Chip. i don't think it'll make my top 20 but there's some really fun songs on it.

Oh, I've listened. I'm just curious over whether you guys will be ashamed of yourselves by later today or hold on until next week.

Awful.

Rads hates his life or what there is left of it, so he comes here and whines about everything.

Poor guy.

For Christ's sake.... you guys can't be serious.
It's like there's some magical mid-May deadline every year where everyone freaks the fuck out if there's not a new Best Band Evar!
So shit like this gets run up the flagpole, song quality be damned.

Clean out your goddamn ears, please.

Fair enough, but shit that sounds like someone tried the Million Monkeys experiment with GarageBand shouldn't be getting 1/1,000th the buzz that these half-wits are.

Yep.
