Guest absolu Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 It leaked quite a while ago but I just listened to it yesterday and surprinsingly, I like this a lot. I'm not usually fond of electro-pop so I didn't have high hopes but this is great pop and it's really catchy. It sometimes reminds me of Isolée with their guitar sounds. You might want to give this a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Shining Rock Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 The first album is incredible, I saw them open for Mouse on Mars, one of the dreamiest live performances I've ever seen, there were about 8 people at the venue so we all stood at the front and afterwards I got to talk to them, really cool dudes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest minisystem Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 yeah, just heard this today actually. quite liked a few tracks off of last exit. this one's really good too, even better perhaps. some cool remixes off this album too - alex smoke, morgan geist...

Guest Moebius Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 I should take a listen, I also saw that with Mouse on Mars and was pleasantly surprised (Ratatat was also good). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Moebius Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 Here's the Pitchfork review : http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/article/reco...This_Is_Goodbye Yep, just saw that today. Grain of salt and all, but still, high enough rating on Pitchfork is usually work checking out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest absolu Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 God I love this record. If I had to do a 2006 top albums, it would be first. I prefer it to Last Exit actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mirezzi Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 In the Morning is basically the hottest track of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

essines Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 its good. why does it say September 11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest absolu Posted September 9, 2006 Share Posted September 9, 2006 its good. why does it say September 11. It hit the stores before because of the leak I guess. (maybe not...) Junior Boys themselves were selling their CD 2 weeks ago in Montreal. Warpbot newsletter aslo says September 11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Green Kingdom Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 Just listened to this for the first time and it's really good! I found it hard to believe that this would be better than Last Exit, but I think it may be. The melodies seem to be stronger throughout and every track is good.

Guest Ron Manager Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 i didn't like last exit at all, but the reviews have all been awfully good on this one ... my thoughts exactly. didn't see what all the fuss was about last time around, but i would still like to look into this one.

playbynumbers Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 i did indeed look into it ... and i dunno, it's somewhat better than last exit, but it still sounds like postal-service-esque-indie-twee crap with occasional glimmers of beauty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
essines Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 yeah.. the electro beats and melodies are good though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
playbynumbers Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 i also like dtnel's beats/melodies, in postal service tracks, but it's ben gibbard that's the problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onecaseman Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 I actually hate this record, and thought they were boring as hell live. Mouse On Mars and Ratatat blew them away. "Birthday" off the first album is a good track though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
