Plus, your better at reviewing electronica albums than I am. So if you want it, go for it, Jacob.

Have a good old-fashioned contributor duel to see who is awarded the feature, like Adam Knott and I used to do when we were contribs (I still seethe when I think about how his joke Plain White T's review got the feature over mine).
It's much more entertaining and it gives us staff on our thrones in Olympus something to be amused by.
10.15.12
But in all seriousness, I love the band very much, but I'm not that versed in electronica. I'm confident in my writing, but I think Jacob would do the better job as he's reviewed several electronica artists.

We can always have a good 'ol fashioned coin toss, Hernan! ;] i feel we're too polite to resolve this any other way.
