3 stars Wasn't a fan of their first 2 albums, but was hopeful that with a different singer they would be much improved, and I think this is their best album, a major improvement fro the 1st two, as it is a bit brighter, poppier, with some actual semblances of melody here and there. But it still just doesn't connect with me, I just don't see the appeal or get why this band has been so praised. There are some interesting things instrumentally, with their use of horns and twisted pastiche of styles from the 1930's and 40's, but the mix with their post-rock hipster vibe just doesn't work for me. An improvement, but not enough. Rating 2.5
