Have you heard any of their new material? I keep seeing stuff posted on Pitchfork, but haven't given any of it a chance just yet.

They said something about being able to stream the entire album on NPR.org this morning on the radio.

Cool, thanks. This sort of thing usually isn't my cup of tea, but for some reason they've grown on me over the years.

i like the new album so far...more of what you'd expect.

the show last night on the other hand was a bit of a let-down.

first of all, i forgot my skinny jeans and attitude so i was an outcast in the crowd. secondly it was at the chicago theater on a monday night so people were sitting throughout most of the show and there was just a weird vibe. Third of all they played a very underwhelming set which I guess is their style but I prefer their stuff that has a bit more of a beat to it. I will give them credit though, for a 12 piece band they can really play dynamically.

Highlights for me were boy with the arab strap, i want the world to stop (new song), and sleep the clock around. i'd be hesitant to see them anywhere that wasn't very intimate next time.
