Loving the new direction they've taken. When I first heard "Beta Love" I was a little put off by the synths replacing the strings, but "Beta Love" has been one of the most consistently played songs on my iPod for the past couple weeks now. This is great, too.
They had synths in a few of their songs so I'm not surprised they went into this direction. I am really loving the 2 songs I heard from this album. Probably my most anticipated of 13.
Just saw them live with Passion Pit a few weeks ago and was REALLY impressed (being a fan of the first 2 albums of course). They played a couple other new songs besides Beta Love and wasn't really feeling them. This song however is unreal.
