Really? I think it's quite possibly their best, most fully realized album yet. Love the first two more than life itself at times, especially "Asleep in the Back", but this one is just
stunning and one of the few not disappointing at all records of the ones I was really looking forward to this year. The art is shit, but you can't win 'em all.
The 'Forget Myself' b-sides are equally fantastic, as always, and well worth picking up the singles for.
