   Their best work - without a doubt among the best the genre has offered.

   How dissapointing! What a painfully mediocre outing from the band that brought us two awesome, majestic and essential post-rock albums. While no longer a blatant rip-off of Mogwai and Godspeed, All of a Sudden I Miss Everyone just falls flat, sounding instead like a rip off of their older material. The band sounds out of ideas and in a creative slump, afraid to try anything new, preferring instead to just re-hash old ideas and formulas. From an engineering perspective, the album sounds half-assed compared to the sheen or their previous work, and there is a horribly distracting and obnoxious slap-delay-echo effect on the drums to attempt to make up for the repetitive drummer's lack of inventive chops. But it just doesn't work. Lacking the bombast and pathos of their previous work, the album seems to just drift, never climaxing or even resolving. I am blwon away by the high praise this album was unduly warranted. I simply can't believe that any of the reviewers have listened to this band's full catalogue, it is truly a step backwards. Give Do Make Say Think's "A History in Rust" a listen if you think this album is good, and prepare to be blown away.… Expand
