I actually bought Hither Thither not long after it was released, and it's not the first time they have been mentioned on Musicbanter. I liked it the first few times but just got a bit bored of it after that. The Radiohead and Beatles influences were easy to spot but there wasn't really anything else interesting to warrant repeated listening. It's not that it's a bad album as such but i could be a whole lot better.
By the way i also know that you have connections with the band and are spamming for them lol
