OK, so I've just checked out
Passover and this is damn tasty.
I'd never come across these guys before, glad I have now.

I listened to Passover a fair bit in 2006 but haven't heard anything else. What next guys?

That's honestly a tough call. All of the other albums are more experimental on the whole. Na. Jump to Indigo meadow. It is the most accessible. But Phosphene dream is the best imo.

Not sure how I feel about the new album as a whole.

it's growing on me but I feel like there are weak tracks. Indigo Meadow was flawed too. Passover and Phosphene dream are really the only front to back albums.

Grab As Much, Estimate, Currency, and Half Believing are the standout tracks to me. Hunt Me Down is a classic rock song. Pretty rad when you dumb as hell. I think this band might require weed.

I'm waiting to listen when I get a quality source. I didn't want to tarnish my first listen by streaming the NPR feed. Looking forward to it though as I've enjoyed the first three songs, especially Currency. Weed makes everything better, too

the npr stream is 256kbps mp3s, so could be plenty worse to listen to.

I liked their first couple of albums. I'll check out the new one when it hits Spotify or something.

Really?? Guess I should actually check that shit out before I go shooting off at the mouth. I thought those streams were usually lower quality. Thanks for the heads-up!

Yeah, it's grown on me as an album. Probably my favorite of the year so far.
