i like em quite a bit, starting with the "ep" loveways
(for the single "figures of art," mainly, but only cuz
that was what i heard first, on www.3wk.com); then
LOVE LOVE LOVED the first full release "girls can
tell," though admittedly it had to grow on me awhile. 
"Kill the Moonlight" i found likeable, and with a
couple of truly amazing singles ("jonathan fisk"
springs to mind) and was pleased, upon seeing them for
this tour, that they did not irritate me hardly at all
(for some reason i went in expecting this britt daniel
fellow to be sort of an effete snob sort, but he did
not come across as one) and the band kicked ass live.

"Lines in a Suit" and "chicago at night" are two of my
absolute favorite songs from that year.  Highly
recommended to folks who like a wee bit o indie drone
in their otherwise sheeny pop.


but I do not have the newest of the new...any
comments? if you're talking top 20, that must mean
it's good, right?
