Don't think this one ever got a proper thread...

I gotta admit, I really like these guys and this album actually fleshes out their sound a bit. "Your Famous Friends" is a huge jam for me right now.

Anybody know why they recycled some songs off of the last one?

It's grown on me a lot since that first listen. Still a bit of a disappointment overall, but it's getting a lot of play this summer anyway.

I like it, maybe not as much as their first one, but it's still really good. Probably top 5 for me.

Bloor, I think their debut was so indie that I think this is kind of the proper first release for them, and that's why they have 2 songs from the other album on it. Not sure though.

Still haven't gotten around to listening to this yet but I did dl and will listen soon. Really liked their last album. I've seen them live twice though and they really suck as a live band.
