The acoustic for dyed in wool is pretty epic as well.

I think the problem people are having has mostly to do with the lyrics. On the past albums Anthony wrote about his addictions, Movies, Music, Books and other things in a majestic kinda smart-alecky way. This album is obviously a more straight forward writing style. Also i think this album is more personal and about some sort of terrible relationship (hopfully not his current wife). Personally to me his tone of voice and the emotion you hear and feel when he sings greatly out does any writing style he chooses. In the end this Album is AMAZING!

"I Felt Free" is an AMAZING song. David Bottrill really brought the best out of these amazing musicians. What an amazing piece of work, they should be extremely proud of themselves.

As a longtime Circa Survive fan, I was initially put off by Imaginary Enemy and from then on I was somewhat against the album. But I failed to recognize that the album as a whole is simply amazing...this is not a singles album.

Replace "I Felt Free" with "Strange Terrain" and that's my exact order.



Anyone else get huge Elliott Smith vibes from "Spirit of the Stairwell"? Sounds weirdly similar to some of the material on XO to me.

I Felt Free just reminds me of Nineteen by Tegan and Sara, that chorus vocal melody line can't be unheard. And Nineteen is better than I Felt Free.



The Longest Mile is probably my favourite track at the moment along with the instrumental, its slowly growing.

I saw an acoustic show last night, and got the vinyl signed. This album surprised me in how well done it is, I had mixed expectations.

I had that Elliott Smith vibe too. Reminded me of Waltz #2 (XO) but in 4/4.

In fact I just listened again, and there might be a plagiarism case here.

excuse my poor hearing, but what does the backup chorus sing after "in our lives..." in the chorus of strange terrain?
