christian has been working on his review of the album and he might post it tonight or in the next few days. he told me he's impressed as well.

I think I'll write a review when I hear it. That sort of thing is always fun.

I've spent the last day listening to the album and it's really good. It's surprisingly complex, both musically as well as lyrically, with most of the songs focusing on absurdest and existential ideas (i.e meaning of life, is there a god, whats real/whats not blah blah). Michelle's songwriting on this album is way better than her previous efforts. Johns on fire too. Most of the songs are pop/rock but they definitely have a distinctive/original sound with lots going on in the background. You can tell they spend allot of time crafting these songs. Good job guys!

but thats just my view

need a few more listens to review...but I am very pleased.

[Dead Poetic]

I've written reviews for Amazon and Target, so they should be up soon.

i only have this to say:

It's like they made the album just for me

[placebo]

So yeah... I registered a long time ago and kinda forgot this place existed. Oops.

I'm on my second full listen and all I can say is WOW. This has got to be the best album released so far this year. I especially love the 1-2 punch of "How Do I Fix My Head" and "Who Will Save Us Now", but really there aren't any weak songs on here. And there's a lot of variety, which I love. In an age when most bands sound like they're playing the same song over and over again (especially in the punk/emo/hardcore/whatever scenes) it's really refreshing to hear a band try so many different styles and sounds and pull it off so well. I really connected with the first album on many levels, the EP made me think these guys were seriously onto something here, seeing them live in March blew my mind, but I think it might be this album that turns me into an obsessed fanboy. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

i do believe that i'm in love with How do i fix my head
