And I definitely got chills the first time I heard "Radioactive," the same way I did when I first heard "The Bucket" in 2004, even though the sounds are completely different. Odd, but cool.<br /><br />...but, KOL doth protest too much in the press instead of just staying mum? They seem awfully defensive regarding "selling out" accusations and how they claim they have not, nor will they ever. Fine, you won't let Glee use your songs, but then why did you give 3 of them to Gossip Girl for a crapload of money? And also, why are you starting beef with Arcade Fire? I just don't know why they don't at least try to pretend that they don't care what people think?<br /><br />See: http://tinyurl.com/34o7qpwMonahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03316972451126182578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-835845587180409232.post-42659508514755312062010-11-12T06:59:33.170-08:002010-11-12T06:59:33.170-08:00"I think that those who may find this album d..."I think that those who may find this album disappointing are the folks who got to the KOL party early and long for the stripped-down presentation off of their early efforts" <br /><br />Guilty as charged! I'm still waiting for those <i>YAYM</i> and <i>ASH</i> days to come back, even though I know it ain't gonna happen. I remember "Molly's Chamber's" was in a VW Jetta commercial in the early '00s, but still... if you asked me then if I thought KOL would ever reach this level of fame I never would have guessed it.Monahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03316972451126182578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-835845587180409232.post-69099322900829383712010-11-12T00:19:12.887-08:002010-11-12T00:19:12.887-08:00On a fence, eh?

If you like what you've heard on all the albums so far, you should find this album an excellent addition to the catalog.Nightrainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15141858074146013333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-835845587180409232.post-89483766505849310862010-11-12T00:10:29.135-08:002010-11-12T00:10:29.135-08:00Great review.
