Hmm, so Sirens-Sleight of Hand is PJ's Wizard of Oz meets Dark Side of the Moon?

This. What we have heard so far is what they have been *trying* to achieve the last few albums and actually doing it.
UK/LB
Got Some/Getaway
Big Wave/LTRP
Come Back/Sirens
Force Of Nature/Amongst The Waves/Swallowed Whole
Except...the new ones are all better. Much Better.

Ugh, yes I meant I listened to Sleight of Hand while watching the Sirens video. It went together really well, it was awesome. And I only did it cause SoH came on my Ipod randomly, it just worked.

Sorry if this has already been posted - I can't bear to actually read the thread.
Sirens....

Why are you putting so much emphasis on the "h"?

Re: Lightning Bolt - October 15
So... i dug 4 of the 5 songs prior to Sirens, but sadly I have to say that musically it's one of their most generic songs in their catalog.
it also feels like it's 10 minutes long
