Really only know of this band cause Greg Edwards was in Failure. But have yet to listen to anything by them.

I mentioned the album a bit when it was released and included it in my best of 2010 list.

It's a really good album but just not as good as Future Perfect. I was slightly disappointed on its release but I did have my expectations too high in all fairness especially after having to wait years for the album. I did grow to love it though and it has no shortage of great tunes such as 'Census' and 'The Bouncing Wall' among others. Although Transit Transit is a little bit more experimental it does kind of lack the edge of Future Perfect.

I'm hoping we don't have to wait as long for the follow-up!

I agree. The latest is nowhere near as good but it is a grower. Future Perfect was produced by T Bone Burnett and I think that definitely added a heavier dynamic absent from Transit Transit.

Downloaded Future Perfect last night, it's pretty good, will probably give the latest album a listen sometime soon.

I second this, verbatim

First listen I felt like it wasn't up to the standard of the first but it has definitely grown on me with subsequent listens.

just started future perfect thanks for the thread, so far enjoying it

Judging by 'Soft Scene' and 'Change My Head', the new album is going to be dreamier and more mellow than their previous material.
