Wolf Like Me is a great song but I cant get into anything else on the album.

I was the same way, I had it on my Ipod and listened to it during a long drive and I did a total 180 and now I love it

yeah took me a looooong time to get in to them, but eventually it clicked. was the same with mars volta, challenging listens but it just takes a bit of persistance

Can't wait. Love TVOTR. Wondering if the two singles they released last year will be on the new album or if it will be completely fresh. Loved "Mercy."

Seeds is "out". I had my doubts cause i think Happy Idiot is ok, but didn't really stand out for me. However the album i think is really good. Some outstanding tracks like Lazerrray, Winter, and Could You.

Gonna try and check them when they play philly on Monday

Saw them a few weeks back in LA and they played about six new songs. Always interesting to hear new songs live first and then go backwards and hear the recorded version when the album comes out later. They played Happy Idiot, Could You, Careful You, Trouble, Ride, and actually ended with Lazerray because they ran out of time for Staring at the Sun. I liked Ride and Could You a lot, and thought Lazerray could sound pretty good. Hopefully I'll see them again when they come back around or play Coachella because we were up close and Dave's guitar amp overpowered everything in the mix where we were standing so it was tough to get a full take on the songs.
Need to sit down and give it a proper listen still but also liked what a heard with Winter. Really interesting album from them.

Gonna try for one of the Webster Hall dates:

It's great to hear a peep from them - been way too long, and had thought about them here and there, wondering if they'd ever come back. I do wish they continue to make music, though, and that this isn't just a one-off for now....

Bucket list band for me - is anyone trying to get tickets for these or other dates?

Was happy to hear the news about TVOTR coming back, even if it doesn't mean new music initially. Definitely going to try for at least one of the LA dates. 

Interesting to read that Dave Sitek isn't taking part in these shows.

Their Live on Letterman set (Pearl Jam, My Morning Jacket, others did these!) was incredible. Such a beast of a version of this song:
