I gotta be honest, I'd reach for Funeral on the average day before At Dawn.

I think MMJ is starting to annoy me almost as much as Spoon. But, I really don't like that Arcade Fire record either...this is a tough one.

Way to shoot down all my negative comments! You're a regular passive-aggressive beacon of positivity and tolerance!

Keep up the good work!

Hmm, I guess I did respond sarcastically to two of your comments today, but this one was more intended to be a good natured dig at Rads rather than you.

:lol: well done.

I like MMJ just fine and hope Z or It Still Moves makes it far in the competition but this isn't close for me. AF!

Pretty much. I still like Funeral but it has several songs of filler IMO.

I honestly think a lot of people simply haven't heard At Dawn.
