As a long time AILD fan...I kinda feel strange saying this because of the dissimilarities between the new album and their older stuff, but I actually think that "An Ocean Between Us" is a pretty strong release for them. They broke the trend of writing 10 or 11 songs that sound the same, and a widened spectrum of influences is made apparent far more on this album than on their last album. I'll admit though, the new album lacks the hooks that I think attract most of their older fans.
I agree with APS though, Frail Words for the win.

Oh please, don't barrage me with questions to all those ugly answers.
My ego's like my stomach- it keeps shitting what I feed it.
But maybe I don't want to finish anything anymore..
maybe I can wait in bed 'til she comes home. and whispers....
