Oddly they released a new album without being around.

I enjoy it a lot.

is this worth checking out? I was a huge fan of their older stuff, but havent liked much of their newer stuff.

not on itunes yet. :/
I have like 60 bucks of itunes card shit that i'm never going to use...so i may just get it as soon as its up.
newer stuff seems closer to One Fell Swoop.

Unfortunately not on iTunes yet but from what I've heard so far I'm pretty sure I'll fall in love with it!

People always exaggerate how bad their newer stuff is. There were a few really enjoyable songs: Gateway Drug, Our Song, Dust Storm.

This made me happy.

i'm echoing the sentiments of not on itunes yet? blaaah.

and after reading about nick's addiction, which was worse than i had even imagined, i felt pretty shitty for always saying how crappy their newer stuff was sounding. this album touches one fell swoop though, so i see the blessing in the curse. sad though. wow!

Yeah. It was pretty obvious. The last time I saw them he was shaking and sweating big time (much more than he normally does). They still absolutely killed it but you could tell he wasn't as into it as he was pre-addiction and that he felt uncomfortable. Can't wait to hear this new album and hoping it is a return to form.

I can't get a chance to listen to this until tonight. What are your thoughts on the album Jason?

Blasting it in my car. I love it.

Haven't listened to it yet ... it's not on Rdio or Spotify.
