    I heard this for the first time last night. Great album. This is my favorite of theirs that I have heard so far, mostly due to the classic rock touches the album adds and the breathing room the songs all seem to embrace. I have not heard Stairs and Elevators, but have the other 2. I kept thinking that this band had so much promise, and I am glad they appear to have delivered on that. But as a side note: this a an excellent lineup - please don't change it yet again.
  • New Album is kicking my ass!!!

    The opener, Marathon, I think I have replayed at least 10x...

    Wow wowowowowow

    Wow wowowowowow

    I hear ya man! The 1-2 punch of Marathon ----> Parted Ways is heavyweight division kinda stuff. So, so good. I woke in the middle of last night taking care of a young 'un and even at that early hour had Marathon playing in my head. Looking forward to growing with this record :mrgreen:

  • Never knew much about them. Saw them when they opened for Wolfmother in 2009. Was really impressed with them.

    I agree - not a bad track on the album. I'm not even sure which is my favorite. Every time I listen to it, my favorite changes. Currently, I'm going with "Simple Feeling"
