the more i listen to it, the more i agree with this. i guess i was always kinda turned off by the more chaotic tendency of their debut, but after numerous listens its really grown on me

i guess you could argue the songs in hyp/mez introduce some more interesting harmony and time sigs, etc. but overall, the newer material just doens't seem as genuine and is just a little too 'polished' for my tastes, though i still enjoy them. plus, if i'm going to listen to something sophisticated, its not gunna be soad

i'm still check out steal this album out of curiosity
