They need to utilize his falsetto more and pursue the more mellow, indie aspect of their music. The alt. rock stuff is just cringe worthy.

This is what I was afraid of. I'm glad I swung in.

Alt. tracks huh?

I saw them at BFD 2010 this year and they were really good live. The problem was, after going home and "aquiring" the album I realized their recordings suck compared to their live performances. I just can't listen to any of the songs without thinking about how much better it seemed live.

Drum Song is still awesome though, and wonderful live.

how are the lyrics on the album, because what they sing in swwet disposition is psuedo-elitist garbage.
