Love this album!

it didn't stick to the ribs first couple of listens, but once it sunk in and i started to hear what they were really trying to do, i couldn't get enough.

i think everyone was seduced by Electric Feel thinking the whole album would have the same vibe, Pysch!

it's good to hear something fresh (though there is a lot of sonic recycling going on) like this, not everyone gets it, but who cares? i can't wait for them to drop their next one.

Yeah, I'm really eager to see their albums come out and watch them evolve. I really love their music. I think they had some turmoil about all of their singles, and I'm thinking their going to be more on the side of the second half of Oracular Spectaular in the future. I'm guessing from their interviews and from their EP Metanoia.

This is a great review for a great album.
I have to agree with your Kids review, the first couple times I heard that song it hit me so well and I was in love.
I understand why people don't enjoy this album but I can never get tired of listening to the gems on this album.
