I've just listened to this for the first time and the first impressions are fantastic. I can't remember the last time an album gave me goosebumps on the first listen. Also frightened almost made me cry. The only down side is that I've heard a lot of it live so it all sounds a lot less epic on the computer/earphones (especially My girls which sort of crushes you with its booming drum bass live). I need to invest in a better sound system. And I definitely need to hear all this high and have multiple eargasms.
I vote excellent. Possibly album of the year.
