Hey Stewart,

I think their newest one is their best. I really loved
most of "Mass Romantic" and then quickly lost interest
on the next two which Pitchfork & some on this list
seemed to prefer (Electric Version & Twin Cinemas).
The new one seems to be more of what made the debut
great. Part of their appeal is the different
approaches you get from the various singers - They're
sort of an indie-"super group." If you prefer a more
"singular voice" in a band, they aren't for you.
Personally, I love the juxtaposition of Neko Case and
Dan Bejar.
