    new album out this week - I've absolutely loved their last few releases (Microcastle, Weird Era Cont., Rainwater Cassette Exchange) and what I've heard of the new one sounds excellent. Very strong review on Pitchfork today also

    this is off the new one:

    Listened to it on the way to college and on the way back! Love it.

    'Desire lines' is probably my favorite tune.

    Despite not being too familiar with their previous releases, aside from Atlas Sound, I quite like this album

    It's an unreal album. Strong, simple songwriting and great production.

    'Helicopter' is very good. Not sure about the rest.

    This is the first album I've heard of theirs and it made me wanna hear more. Earthquake is particularly sexy.

    One of the best albums of the year, I'd almost say I'd prefer it to Microcastle/weird era contd. Desire Lines would be my personal favourite.

    Good album alright. Some songs I hate on it, but some I love. Will give it more time and see does it grow on me overall.

    Also the first time I've gave them a go. Heard 'He would have laughed' on Hypem during the week so I got the album on the strength of that.

    It's really good dreamy, lounge around music. Similarities with Grizzly Bear I think.
    Will be going back to this one more...

    Not really getting that but then again I've only ever listened to 'Veckatimest' which put me straight to sleep. 'Halcyon Digest' is far more interesting.
