Show Your Bones 2006
This album in my mind is one of the best indie releases of the 00's. It is where everything for this band gelled together perfectly.
Unlike the previous release, the songwriting is focused with a lot of thought put into the compositions. Great choruses, bridges, and melodies being played over top of the rhythms. Yes it is more subdued than Fever to Tell, but Karen O's vocals are also a lot more on the mark with this album.
Thus if your reading this Bob, you need to fling your Gorilla Biscuits Cd out the car window and put this on repeat. JK, I like the Biscuits so long as their not the Limp ones.
Its also nice to hear a rock band sample a hip hop song for once, instead of the other way around (Phenomena). It may not be as good as the LL cool J's version, but its still pretty cool. Although the album tends to nod off a bit at the end, I give it,
**** stars.
