pretty smooth

they sound like

one my favorite albums of the year

looks like they're blowing up

Album holds up well a month later.

Dissolve me is a terrible track that should be burned with fire.

I saw them live. It was like a 40 minute set that ended before midnight, even with them headlining. But I blame the venue.

Just got put onto them.. pretty impressive

Ya recently heard them on XRT and have been listening non stop since. Breezeblocks is so fucking dope it's insane.

Yea I actually bought the album

Saw them with a bunch of bands for 5 bucks awhile back. My wife and daughter both love their broom-shaped snatch pleasure.

haha, this is so accurate, good stuff. Songs are pretty good too.

saw them at sasquatch couple weeks back and they were the highlight of the weekend.

One of the best albums of 2012. No else like these cats. Truly original stuff.

digdigging that newnew

two of the three songs released from the upcoming album have been great. not a huge fan of "left hand free" but "every other freckle" and "hunger of the pine" are both dope. seeing these guys in november on their tour. heard nothing but good things about their shows

Live show is too good. "Left Hand Free" sounds like they were trying to make a song for a MasterCard commercial.

ah, somehow hadn't heard those other two, am with the consensus tho

Turgid

Streaming on iTunes now

I've only listened to the new album once, it was ok. That first album is such heat though.

Yeah, a bit disappointed with this. Every song sounds like it's an intro to something.

yeah this album is pretty underwhelming, especially compared to the first. couple good songs but lots of ambient boring non-build up ish
