    City Lights & Traffic Sounds is such a nice little song. The lyrics break my heart. The vocals are fucking beautiful, though.

    I agree. It's one of my favorite tracks.

    Now that I've listened some more to these two albums, though, I'm getting bored and slightly annoyed. The vocals and lyrics are very repetitive. Lots of filler material on both albums.

    Yeah, but there are some stellar tracks nonetheless

    Disagree. I really feel like every song they have put out is brilliant. Maybe that'll wear off. But right now, I love it all.

    Oh man their new album is right now ranked as the best of the year so far. Never thought I would say this... but it's better than the new Oceansize album.

    omgmazing. Seeing them play this just solidifies this as my favorite song on This Is What Happens. That drum/piano/horn break near the end gets me every time. :yay

    listening to their new album now, and it's really fucking great.

    reminds me of Shapiro, like a lot.

    which is not a bad thing at all.

    According to the SceneIt show they did tonight, there's supposed to be a Christmas EP coming out in the next day or so.

    fortunately, that makes it obvious that the person is dumb as shit, so you really shouldn't be bothered by the opinion.

    These dudes are beyond amazing in all the live clips, but on the albums i get a bit bored. I think the production might be a bit too smooth or something.

    I haven't had too much luck finding another band like this so far. If I plug them into Pandora, I just get back a bunch of generic piano pop.

    It seems the new album is progressing pretty well.

    Meanwhile we can nerd out on these Final Fantasy covers they made for a official Square Enix album:
    Final Fantasy VII: Main Theme
