meh, the music isn't spectacular to me, but the vocalist is, and the atmosphere of this album is incredible. it's almost dredg-like but a lot more energetic so it's easier to listen to in settings like driving.

you are on crack cocaine they rule

That isn't even the album I'm talking about.

The singers lows are horrible.

I will concede however that the last 3 or so songs are pretty weak.

Album Rating: 3.0

His lows in dance of the manatee reek of trying too hard. It's a good part because it varies things up, but is just weak on it's own.

Going to give this another spin and see if it grows any more...

I actually didn't really have a problem with any of the first 8 songs, except perhaps kyla cries cologne. I just feel that the album finishes on a low, the mid section is really blistering and awesomesauce, but then it just finishes with a wet fart.

FTM makes some of the most powerful choruses I've heard in music.

I was digging this until the bad Limp Bizkit part in the first song, then it struggled to keep my interest. Came off as a weird mix between Fall Out Boy and System of a Down with a hint of Incubus thrown in, which would've been cool but I don't know, album is lacking something. If you're not fond of that comparison, Plath's "Savage Garden meets Tool" one will suffice.
What I don't get is why this band is being praised as some genre-bending creative force. These songs are certainly well crafted enough but come on, this is still basically just "alt rock". This Message Edited On 04.25.08

I agree its basically alt rock, but I still love it.

Oh yeah no I wasn't using 'alt rock' in a derogatory sense, I just don't think being such an obvious blend of bands makes these guys unique so much as it makes them an obvious blend of a bunch of bands.

idc what this is i love it

This is good, but I don't see why it keeps getting labeled as prog.
