AND IT RULES. It's a happier album, a lot of the arrangements move in that weird-o baroque R&B thing they did with "Knife" or "He Hit Me". The whole thing sounds a lot more like the Friends EP than Yellow House. I sort of miss the really spooky, vaguely classical movements of the songs on Yellow House, but it's been replaced with better vocals and tighter songwriting. There's a Walkmen-y vibe on a couple of the songs. It's mastered beautifully.
