A very contemplative and yet strong album, quiet but never boring.

this is an amazing record. it's unique, delicate, and smart. "Green Gloves" and "Start a War" are standout tracks with addictive melodies. i adore this band.

Wry and crushing. Orchestrated within an inch of its life while still posessing the energy of a breakup note hitting a hungover mind like a depth charge.

A little more mellow than Alligator, and it did take a couple listens to stick, but now I love these guys.

JDW
My Favorite album of 07, it comes in slightly above The Arcade Fire 'Neon Bible'. It takes at least a second listen for the genius of this album to stand out.
