This album really grew on me. I do like how they aren't complacent with sticking to any sound. From grandiose to subdued to almost disco. They're giving me a strong Talking Heads kind of vibe now with their latest (courtesy of James Murphy). As a whole I don't think I like it quite as much as The Burbs, but great album nonetheless.

I gave it an 8/10. This is the first album of theirs that I have listened all the way through. The others songs that I like from them have mostly just been singles here and there. After saying that I don't feel like I can give a good enough mini review of it since I can't compare it to their past albums overall feel. This does make me want to go back and listen to their previous albums all the way through though.

I love Neon Bible and to a lesser extent Funeral, but this one just strikes me as kind of neutered Talking Heads. 4/10.

9/10
Just because the hidden track is too long but overall this album is incredible.
