Probably 4 1/2 stars
I agree 100% with "Ridley1979". I also think this is the greatest album of 2007. That's saying something in a year that has had more than it's share of amazing albums (Sondre Lerche, Blitzen Trapper, BRMC, Apples in Stereo, The View, Black Francis, Maximo Park, White Rabbits, The Shins, Albert Hammond Jr., The Aliens.....you get the point...). I want these guys to make it big time. (If they don't, while the Killers remain popular, I have lost hope in humanity).....oh, and I want them to come to Minneapolis. Ok, as far as the record goes, just to add; I'd say they also sound like BRMC, The Bongos and My Morning Jacket in spots. Pick this up, you won't regret it.

Best of 2007
Easily my favorite new album of 2007. Somewhat of a sonic mash-up of U2, The Smiths, Jesus & Mary Chain and Echo & the Bunnymen, with maybe a dash of Kitchens of Distinction in there. (Is this suddenly sounding like a Pitchfork review or what?). Comparisons aside, the album is stellar from start to finish, with narely a weak track. If alternative radio latches onto "It Wasn't Said to Ask", "Letter of Inclusion" and/or "In the Shape," this album is going to explode. Kudos to the band for album closer "Never Wrong," a haunting rocker that would have felt right at home on the Bunnymen's "Ocean Rain."
