everyone's pissed that this was more metal than the latest iron maiden record.

The band's most experimental record to date, Silversun Pickups continue their separation from their initial comparison to the Smashing Pumpkins, crafting a dense poppy record with great percussion, but lacking the driving hooks, melodies and riffs of their previous releases.

Starts off ok, tails off, a lot of electronics, sounds like an 80s album, it's ok, but I was hoping for more of a Swoon

Silversun Pickups continue to do what they have for the last decade now. You can hear their core sound continue to wane here, but there are a few quality singles on the album that rank up there with some of their best. Cradle, Connection, Nightlight and Circadian Rhythm, respectively. The rest are honestly throwaway.

Follows after a similar direction as Neck of the Woods, but this time with more electronic influence and a 80's synth flair.

The first two songs are very promising: continuing with their weird sound. "Cradle (Better Nature)," the greatest track, is dizzying and hypnotic, same for "Connection." Sadly, after this track, it feels like they lost steam. Much of the meat of the album is drawn out and just overall "meh" quality. It gets a little better again with "Tapedeck," but then that track begins to get annoying by the end as well. This album also lacks diversity. Much of it feels like 80's electropop. It's on Pandora Premiers (9/21/15-9/25/15) if you're feeling froggy and wanna try it out. It's not bad, but I doubt I'd ever come back to it, honestly, except for the first two tracks. I think Mew's +- is a much better album.
