I loved it, it's a very good album. It does have a very raw sound but this rawness manages to capture the emotion and passion of the band very accurately. The album proves that you don't have to be a great musician to make great music. Although the band are tight as a unit, they aren't exactly virtuosos and certainly can't sing but by writing good memorable songs and pouring all their emotion into the music they succeed spectacularly. I love the collision of guitar noise and melodic vocals on songs like 'Follow' and 'Frame' and even the more mellow and melancholic moments such as 'Behind The Garage' and 'Stove' sound really good.
As Stu mentioned before the album was recorded during the breakdown of the relationship between two of its members, it wasn't as noticeable at first but after repeated listens you start to pay attention to the lyrics a bit more and you start to sense the tension and emotion. The album portrays the feelings of young love gone wrong very nicely.
