I voted excellent. This is the album that all the haters have been wanting them to make for years. Though I loved most of their earlier work too, I appreciate the band's kinda stripped down, direct approach on this album. It's definitely a bit of a shift in style this time, but it's great.

I'd rank this third, behind De-Loused and Frances the Mute.

I voted very good, because relative to De-Loused and Bedlam I can't give it an excellent. Still one of the better releases of '09 so far though.
