Sprawl II is my favourite.

Also, found the BBC review.

Did you read it? Or are you just gonna diss it automatically because it's BBC?

They reached new levels of boring on first impression(I gave it a chance) guess that's some sort of achievement.
Funeral was okay.
Neon Bible was awful.
This is terrible.

Dismiss it automatically because it's the BBC. (I used to be involved with the BBC, c*nts.)

They're really bland and boring aren't they? Like that other artist, what's her name? Oh yeah - Joanna Newsom. Heard of her? If not, I wouldn't bother checking her out if you're not into bland and boring... oh wait.

Oh yeah she's bland, I forgot every artist right now has a voice like her and uses a harp as the main instrument.

She's not generic and samey, but she's still bland.

All the links in the last.fm shoutbox are dead. Can someone please send me the new album?

Ys is one of the least 'bland' albums in existence, considering how big of a mother**** in terms of complexity, arrangement, lyricism, and whatnot it is... That aside.

New album really didn't touch me much. Usually Arcade Fire albums hit me hard and then fade away, so maybe this one'll do the opposite.

Well I am loving the Suburbs. It's gotten heavy play the last couple days. "Ready to Start" is probably my favorite. It does seem to lose some of its steam toward the end of the album (to me), but overall I'm still loving it. I don't know how I'd rank it. Probably even with Funeral. Neon Bible is my favorite. I don't know, we'll see how I feel in a month. But yeah, it's gets my two thumbs up.
