is A Lazarus Taxon a compilation of EPs or is it just a plain-old best-of collection?

i got TNT the other day and it's fantabulous. now i'm getting more. just wondering if i should get this one too...

A Lazarus Taxon is more of a rarities, out-of-print collection.

The next you should get after TNT is Standards. It's danceable, unlike TNT, which was more sit on your bed and let your imagination run wild kinda album.

ok thanks, i'll grab Lazarus too then.

i'm listening to It's All Around You right now. these guys rock! it's such unusual music, but at the same time it's very easy to listen to. i find myself nodding my head to every beat. what fun

Ooooh, it comes out sooner than I thought.

It was actually supposed to come out April 21, but earlier this week I did some digging, because I hadn't heard of an official title, and found the info on the Thrill Jokey site.

Millions Now Living Will Never Die is great. "Djed" is absolutely entrancing. I really enjoy their self-titled and TNT too, but I haven't much to say about their newest album.
