Finally someone else who likes this! All the other reviews I've seen have made it seem pretty lackluster, but I'm really loving this album.

I'll be listening to this later today. Great review.

Thank you for that.

It wouldn't be out of line to mention that she provided vocals on Cowpoke



but that's it

oh and I love this album btw. But Ben Gibbard could fucking fart into his iphone over a techno beat (*cough*"Tomorrow"fromYouCanPlayThe seSongsWithChords*cough*) and I'd listen to it on repeat for the next week so what do I know.

Can't wait to give this a listen.

This album only warrants a listen or two. It's incredibly boring, save a track or so.

Sums it up. Perhaps the most forgettable release of Gibbard's discography.

I haven't listened to any of it yet, but I'm sure the lyrics alone will be enough for me. Ben's a genius.

urgh this is so boring. like codes and keys was so boring.

edit: if i sound bitter it's cos i love ben and i'm disappointed, obv i'm just holding this to a higher standard, it's not awful.

Codes and Keys was a much more listenable boring, though.

I might prefer this to Codes and Keys and I wouldn't expect this to be of the same caliber as a Death Cab album so this isn't nearly as disappointing as that was.

Picked this up today. Halfway into it right now.

And I loved Codes and Keys.

Can't wait to hear this. Excellent review!

did we listen to the same album? this shit is bad
