first half of the title track is much better than the second half. second half sounds like they lost their endurance and finished up the song with whatever fit there.

whole song is awesome, but i think most would argue the 2nd half is the more interesting/exciting half

No Chicago date. I hope they're not doing a [insert name of large] festival date in the summer and calling that their Chicago stop.

It's the perfect album to break out on a cold, snowy day. Fleet Foxes that is, not that other shit.

high quality rip of this out now (early one was a terrible 128kbps w/ skips)
sounds absolutely gorgeous. fantastic production.

too early to say if i like it more than the first, but i didn't dislike a single song upon first listen.

Rumours so far are that this album is FULL ON, but in a folksy way.
