On first listen all I could think of was Modest Mouse. Then I heard some similarities to Arcade Fire, without the density. Clap your hands say yeah floated thru my thoughts as well as mid 80's Daniel Amos. I did not like this record initialy. But the more I listened the more it grew on me. The more my ears were able to hear it. I do find it to be instantly accessible in the fact that it sounds familiar (like something else) but I do think this record stands on its own also. singular and unique. The transformation happened on my second time thru. When I hit "Dear sons and daughters of hungery ghosts". I played it over 6 times. It is damn near immaculate. I suggest you buy it and learn to love it. Just like I did.
