    That's the spirit! To be fair, the stream on the foo's own web page is pretty decent quality.

    i can't believe how good this album is.

    i've always liked the foos. but i always found their albums after color and shape and there is nothing left to lose had a handful of really good songs and then the rest weren't very good.

    but this is by far their best album since there is nothing left to lose (which is my favourtie foos album).


    Dear Rosemary, and Arlandria are my two favourite tracks so far.
