Have you heard Up and Around the Sun? Up is awesome, and the songwriting on Around the Sun is pretty good but it suffers a lot because of the arrangements and boring instrumentation. The live versions of Around the Sun songs are awesome though. They add a much more rough feel to it.



That said, I also think Reveal is perhaps their best since New Adventures. Imitation of Life is one of my favorite songs of the decade.
