it's a fun album. i'd like to play it around work and family more, but the sour language ruins it for me. maybe i gotta rip the songs, rearrange, & burn.

i have gave this a listen through a few times, and i have honestly tried to like it. I dont know what it is but i dont "give a F*** about an oxford comma" or their cd.

Between Average and Very Good.
Some of the songs are pretty catchy, One (Blakes Got A New Face) as my best example.
A-Punk reminds me of Kings Of Leon.

Lol. Same here...oh well. I don't think it's turned sour all of a sudden, I just sort of went through it I guess...

It's brought a new flavor to the forefront of indie pop, namely: the breezy island sound. It's worthwhile for that reason, if no other.

This album has quickly become very tedious and annoying. I'm prob just gonna give it to one of my friends with no taste in music.

No, I see where he's coming from... Its the voice that gets annoying.
