The whole album sounds pretty darn good so far.

Is it more electric, or more folky? I like both of their styles, just asking.

It's not folky. However, it also doesn't seem as edgy as other stuff (like Baby 81). I'm on the first listen.
if you want, I'll bring down a flash drive if you want to meet downstairs.

Baby 81 is hardly the standard they should be held to. Debut album or nothin'.

It's a good album. I didn't care for Baby 81. It didn't have any staying power.

Agree, only has 1 or 2 good tracks on it. I really liked the departure on Howl, made them stand out more than just a 1 sound, hip, fashionable band rehashing sounds from the 60s. What I don't like is that they are considered revolutionary, only because the majority of popular rock sucks so bad.

Who considers them revolutionary? They're a JAMC clone, almost aren't they? That doesn't make them not good but I don't think they're incredible or anything.

When they came out, they were teh bees knees man. Them and the strokes. Meh.
Finished a few listens of it. I think it's really good. A nice mix of "Howl" and their older stuff.
I will say this. These guys are legit in the way they record music. And I think they do most of it themselves. Really cool stuff.
If you're into that type of thing.
OK, we're friends again. Just had my first listen and I'm impressed. Pretty solid all the way through. I really like the slow jams, too.
They sound like they really tried this time. I didn't think Baby 81 reeked of effort.
I saw these guys at the Metro last Thursday. I thought they were excellent. I forgot how sweet the Metro is.

The Metro is sweet. I was there, too, although I think I was a bit less enthusiastic. I tought some of time they were just sort of mailing it in. Over all, I dug the show, but it was just an appetizer to the awesomeness that will engulf The Aragon this Thursday.
