It's weird, all my friends are hyped about this record but it has no footing on this website. Usually the opposite.
Saw them play a half-set at Rough Trade yesterday. They killed it. The new stuff is sounding great live. They just keep getting better.
I used to intern for Lancaster Pa's special events department in the Mayor's office 5 years ago, and I remember these dudes just being 17/18 year old kids playing at the city-wide local music events I used to help promote thinking "fuck, these guys are good". So cool to have seen them blow up the way they have.
