A pretty solid effort from this band. Slow, dream poppy, shogazey stuff. While they don't break any new ground on this release. Tracks like "I used to have sad eyes," "The reddest blues," and "Heaven" are standouts. Check it out. http://music.thewidestsmilingfaces.com/album/me-and-my-ribcage

This is a good start for this band. The sound is just amazingly warm a fuzzy. A little bit more variability in their sound would be nice, along with a little improvement on the song structure in general. It will be interesting to see what these guys can do with their next album.

In my opinion, the best album they have done to date. This is probably their most concise work, but it still has an epic feel to it. We Love You and Dead in the Water are fantastic.

There are a couple really good tracks on this album, but it feels like the ideas on the songs don't come together consistently. Definitely worth a listen, though, if you're in the mood for some downer chill-out music.

The way this band alternates between calm, controlled sections and frantic bursts of emotion is brilliant. Although it's a little rough around the edges this album is truly a gem.

Megadeth Rust in Peace2.5
Just way too overrated. I know that the technical work is good, but vocals are part of the music too. And the vocals are intolerable.

I love the textures created on this album. And while it feels, for the most part, "chill," it still has plenty to keep you interested the whole way through.
