What We Lose in the Fire We Gain in the Flood is pretty fantastic. I haven't heard anything else, yet.

There's just nothing I don't LOVE about this band. Fucking GREAT!!!

I found it brilliant. More eclectic and varied in sound than I'd normally listen to, probably, but with more and more listens since I'm realising that that's this band's talent. Variety of style and influence.
I go back and forth. For a while I was all Generals (even though I adore the first one). After a while something shifted. I listen to What We Lose... more often now. But I don't know that I'll ever be able to pick between the two. I genuinely love every song on both. Which is reason number one that they are one of my favorite bands.verb_to_trust wrote:I love Generals but I think I like 'What we lose in the fire...' a little bit more.

I think you'd really enjoy it as these guys's first record reminded me of that feel quite a bit. Plus it's got Son of a Preacher Man.durdencommatyler wrote:I have not, no.
