i really like kick drum heart.

some of the lyrics were kind of sappy but good. they remind me of the old 97's a bit.

also "Laundry Room". The 3:42 mark and on.

This album is pretty hot.

Pretty good album. I listened to it all day Wednesday riding around a lake in my friend's boat.

I dunno if anyone has posted this yet, but it's pretty awesome:

Gets really good at around 1:39. One of those clips you watch and say to yourself "Man, I wish I was in that band."

I did not know that. It didn't really grab me much at all; I did give it a quite a few chances based largely on the nearly breathless recommendation of contradiction and a few others.

I will try this one out though especially since I generally like "slick and more polished" more than a lot of obs.

while this album is not as raw as emotionalism, it is by no way bland (a fear i had) and will likely end up in my top ten as i continue to listen. i continue to be very impressed with these guys, and they havent made anything yet thats made me consider not listening

Definitely holding up so far. It's clean and shiny and works really well. Most likely top five.
