I've been listening to this album for the past week trying to get it to grow on my and so far it just hasn't. I agree the sound quality is worse than it was on the Loon, but I don't know if that's why I don't like it or if the songs just aren't all that great. I like 'Hang them all' and George Michael' but none of the other songs stand out yet.
Ethanius at 9: Agreed on MGMT! Might be my favorite album of the year so far. The sound of that album is great, not muffled like 'walk it off.' I'm disappointed I procrastinated and missed out on getting tickets to their show at Chop Suey.
Anyone else going to see Tn'T at the Showbox next month? Despite my moderate feelings about this album, I'm still excited about that show. At least the sound quality live should be a lot better.
