They've toured with the XX and a few other bigger bands, so I guess they're finally getting more exposure.  I had heard them before, but hadn't seen them live until SXSW this year. They were phenomenal live! 

 

I didn't particular care for the single either though I really like the previous album.  Just can't decide whether to pull the trigger or not.

after listening to this album 3 times....I am still on the fence about liking it, and due to having NO MONEY really going to pass on this! Will regret I am sure as usually their stuff grows on you!

 

Regarding above post its hard to say who they sound like as I dont usually listen to a lot of this genre!

Maybe a more poppy, dance-y, and girly Cold-Cave?or say Twin Shadow??

Got my paper bag pressing today from an eBay store which made it about $5 cheaper! Looks really nice! Perfect with the cover art will post pics after a listen! Pink is long gone, but I like blue better anyway! A second blue press seems redundant even though its different mix of blues but still should of just stuck to black
