HORNS!!!

Yeah, I like it.  Lots.  

[dragonboy]

What a great track! I've said it before & I'll say it again, what an amazing year for new music!!!

[corey]

Is it fucking July yet?

I *MUST* see these guys this year.

[mjkoehler]

I agree Corey. I hope they come to St Louis. That will help make up for no Jacket.

I have friends that don't like them at all. They are wrong, though.

1. Probably not the only one who doesn't like them, but;
2. Yes, you're right, they are wrong.

Unified scene, man.  ;)

The whole album is up on MySpace: www.myspace.com/theholdsteady

I was trying to hold off on listening to the leak, but I'm totally going to cave in tonight and stream this baby.

I think you'll be happy with it. I know I am.

Just finished my second time through.  It's a definite keeper.  I'm pretty sure I like it better than BaGia, but it's got nothing on SS or AKM, not that much really does.

It's like trying to rate the Jacket albums. I just really can't as they are all really reall damn good.

This is amazing!  One for the Cutters is quite masterpieceful...yes.

Indeed.  I like the whole thing a lot.

I'm on Lord, I'm discouraged, and I think it's fantastic so far.

That solo on "Lord, I'm Discouraged" =  :D :D :D

"Magazines" and "Slapped Actress" are my two favourites so far.  Love the harpsichord on "One for the Cutters" and the talk box on "Joke About Jamaica".  

I really love this album.

I've listened to it a lot this week.  Even the bonus tracks are great.
