Nearly perfect.

Gomez continues to show off their talents with this new CD combining elements from all their other CD's while still showing us that they always have some new trick up their sleeve. It's "classic" rock with that funky idie twist we all love Gomez for.

A return to form for a band that once had the potential to be the best in the Indie scene - perhaps they still can be? Their trade mark laid back sound and sophisticated arrangements are well represented in this album. None of the songs really jump out at you, but they have a beautiful quality sorta similar to early REM in appeal.

These guys don't know how to make a bad album. But this is certainly not the best. Some clunky songs, a lot of high school style lyrics bring it well below their normally high bar. Of course, some standouts here that make it worthwhile.

When we talk about Gomez its just about a band who love to do their music and they always give their best shot.HOW WE OPERATE is a complete album,great songs all over and a work that is a recap how tgeymatured over their 10 years carreer.This is al album for the fanbase,they dont care to gather more audience...you can see it at their gigs,there is passion and love for music from them and from the fans...its great

Jeez -- I guess this album was bound to get mediocre reviews because it's upbeat and accessible and therefore a great "sell out". Pay no attention to Pitchfork. This is a fantastic pop album: smart, sweet, well-produced, diverse, and (it seems to me) more emotionally authentic than previous Gomez records. Yes, it's a departure for Gomez (particularly the huge Tom Gray influence) but it's entirely possible to adore both How We Operate and In Our Gun.
