I thought this album would grow on me after I got it but I just got sick of it shortly after and had no real desire to listen to it. I decided to give it a listen a couple of week ago and I actually found myself switching to something else during the second track. I enjoyed their debut and listened to it quite a lot but something just doesn't feel right with this second album and it's hard to put my finger on what exactly it is. It kind of feels like the band are trying too hard to be folky and it doesn't really feel that authentic or something. There's some great instrumentation on the album alright but there's something about the songs and feel of the album that dosn't quite do it for me.
