I agree that this album isn't spectacular, but this review was kind of weak in making that point.

definitely a fair criticism, I had trouble formulating exactly what I wanted to say about this album.

hmm, i'm not too sure about it, but it's a pretty insignificant name-drop/whatever you want to call it, so it's probably fine, haha.

on another hand, i really liked this review. i feel like you put more thought than usual into how yeasayer and this album fit into the indie spectrum these days. it might not comment on the -quality- of the album that much, but i feel it's pretty spot-on about them being condemned to just being compared to other bands, or a recommendation if you like [insert band]. nice work.

just realized i made a mistake calling Anand Wilder the lead singer. That's a mistake, it's been corrected.

I REALLY like the last two Yeasayer albums. I'll be getting this. Very well-written review too. Although I don't know if I agree that Yeasayer won't break out in a few years. Time will tell!

your description actually rather sold me on the song, which i'm listening to contentedly now

there's something deeply wrong with my taste
