    Saw them Saturday night in Brooklyn, awesome show. Only my second time seeing them live but the Knitting Factory is TINY. New songs sounded great and sounds like they'll tour in support of the new album in 2017.

    So i struggled the first few listens but after a few weeks i like it. Their lyrics have always been a tad.... I don't know how to put it but they were fun but never their strength. I felt that is even more glaring on this album.

    That said its a fun album and i'm enjoying the hell out of it. Love riding around with the window down blasting this

    that line made me laugh. it's like it belongs in a kid's song.

    i dig it, not as much as their previous albums but it rocks. Love Arc of Bar and the title track.

    Seeing them next week, pretty pumped for that :smile:

    and that was a pretty wild/awesome show. got nailed in the chest from a stage diver and in the back of the neck from another crowd surfer. Also got nailed right above the eye which left a nice bruise from another crowd surfer. I survived and apparently can still "hang" in the pit. Although that was probably the worst I've been injured in a concert and I've seen heavier playing bands.

    Kinda similar to previous set lists although they did play Heart Sweats which they hadn't played in like 5 years. Also they filmed part of the concert (maybe for a live DVD or something)?

    I LOVE this album. It's their best work yet to me. NESW and In a Body Like a Grave in particular are great.

    In LA for work next week and gonna go see them. Even solo if I have to.

    Both of those are great tunes. "Midnight to Morning" is my favorite track, such a great song. Also, I'd go to Japandroids solo, usually a really cool crowd.

    Went Thursday to the show at the Fonda. They were just as awesome as I assumed and heard. Great light show, played tight as hell.
