Be Calm is such a good opener. I remember how surprised I was the first time I heard these guys on the radio, good for them though! haha

If 'Aim and Ignite' can be classified as pop, then it is the best pop album of 2009. Nate Ruess & Co. deliver a thoroughly satisfying LP with many highlights & only a couple of tracks where the interest drops. From infectious harmonies to thoughtful piano ballads, fun. has successfully released an album which is simple, yet intricate; immediate, yet a grower. Best of all are the 2 bookends; the joyous African rhythms of the 7 minute closer & the uplifting theatrical opener which seamlessly uses every musical technique in the book to result in one of the songs of the year! Recommended Tracks: Be Calm, Take Your Time, The Gambler & At Least I'm Not As Sad.

Be Calm is one of the best songs I've heard in a long time honestly.

Goodness, I'd nearly forgotten how great this album is. The whole thing just has a fundamental sweetness and likability about it.

Are there other "pop" bands that play layered music like fun. that people would recommend? I listen to mainly progressive rock.
