Yeah I've been blasting this a lot lately myself tbh

I always seem to find myself starting with 'NY Is Killing me' though, and then going back to 'I'm New Here'

Yeah both those songs are killer, think the album might end up having some of my favourite songs from 2011, not sure about favourite album though.

I can't say I'm the biggest fan of I'm New Here but it definitely wasn't without its charms. Where were the staff write-ups for these 2 albums?

Lazy sonsof......

I can somewhat see how the original was overlooked. Gil isn't the biggest name in the world (and admittedly that's mainly because of his own doing) but I'm surprised that having XX in the "band" name didn't send a site like Sputnik into a small frenzy

I don't think the indie crowd here ever bit that hard on all their hype.

Just need to go and yell at the meds to feature this for a couple days and then write up a track of the day for NY is Killing Me.

Another thing going against it is dull cover art, how am I supposed to be pulled in by that.
