    I just Dl'ed their previous album and enjoyed it after seeing that Pitchfork gave it a BNM. Will check it out.

    I saw that they're playing here in a few weeks and remembered this thread. I'm slowly working through their catalogue of music and really enjoy what I've heard. Unfortunately I forgot their complete works at home so whenever I get a chance I'll YouTube a new song. I am very tempted to catch their show so far.

    I caught them here in Phoenix at a little place called the Trunk Space... had enough room for maybe 30 people, tops. It was one of the best shows I've ever seen. Lots of energy. Very humble guys.

    This record is amazing! One of my favorites of the year so far and very well could end up being my album of the year.

    I remembered to bring their collected works to work this morning so I'll be giving them a good listen. It won't take much to justify a $15 ticket to their show, but as of right now they're blowing me away.

    Post-Nothing was fantastic; I really felt the last three songs were the strongest. I'm starting No Singles right now, then on to the album you've all said is amazing, Celebration Rock.

    Alright, I've finished Celebration Rock. I really enjoyed it, and just like their first disc, I feel that the final three tracks are the strongest. I think they're worth my hard-earned $15 to see live.

    I just got done listening to Post Nothing in my car. Tracks 4-9 and especially Heart Sweats are amazing. I say this alot with music but it really is a great summer driving album. I cant wait for the new album to come out.

    If it wasn't for this thread I never would have given them a chance. I'm glad I did. Now I just need to get around to buying a ticket for their concert. My only problem is the Roger Waters show on the same day still has tickets available. This is a tough choice, though I've already seen the Wall live last time he did Toronto.

    There is an eighty dollar price difference that's making my decision easier.

    it really pisses me off that drek like One Direction costs $12 and for a band from my own country costs nearly $20. Why is Canadian music so fucking expensive in CANADA??? Same with Black Mountain and Pack A.D.
