The Woods is the perfect example of a great album being crippled somewhat by excessively-loud mastering. And of course who produced it only Dave Fridmann who was also responsible for the equally loud Flaming Lips album At War With The Mystics.

It does lend a scuzzy feel to the music like it was recorded live, however listening to it through headphones can be a bit too much to bear at times. I think the best way to listen to it is through speakers with the volume cranked up a bit.

A new single out as well as a new album and tour in the new year! I seriously thought that I'd never hear from these girls again.

I like the new song but the video could have been better.
