What are those standards?

on average, how 'weird' an album is; i suspect this is higher than average.

to chambered, that is

Album Rating: 4.5

its really not that weird,

just very clever pop rock

i can definitely see weird; e.g. that guitar part and the syncopated triplets of introducing palace players

Album Rating: 4.0

Thanks so much. Too bad I have to wait until work is over to check it out. Btw, pitchfork's review is up for those who care. 8.1 - very positive and they don't say one bad thing about it.

Album Rating: 3.0

that's shocking...

actually they said it was a hair less awesome than ATGHK ;)

A hair less awesome - I wouldn't call that a bad thing though

Album Rating: 3.0

it is considering ATGHK isn't that good, just because it's one song people overrate it like crazy.



listening to this again...rating is staying the same

Album Rating: 3.0

hmm..honestly I'm not sure, personally Bat For Lashes is owning me, I just found this really cool atmospheric metal record called antibioTHic by Non Immemor Mei, the new Current 93 is pretty great, Soap & Skin is great, this rap group Finale is great, the new Buckethead is surprisingly enjoyable, there's lots man

Album Rating: 4.0

It's cool. I like the previous album more though.

Album Rating: 4.0

Naa.

Album Rating: 4.0 | Sound Off

Yeah

Album Rating: 4.5

oh i disagree with that! it isn't mixed as well as this album, but it's just as beautiful

Album Rating: 4.0

This is "beautifuL" but not very interesting.

Album Rating: 3.0

that's what I've been saying man

Album Rating: 4.5

I thought it was boring too. even being a fan of Mew before they suddenly got big here, it definitely took several listens.

Its okay, I guess
