I wanted so badly to give it a 9 based on the title track, which is slow and somewhat sludgy, but damned if I don't just keep coming back to this one time and time again. It's by far my favorite, exploring themes of religion, murder, relationships, family, and salvation in the twisted, quixotic way that only Dave Bazan can. This and Control are just unbeatable for me.
Leroy BY gave it an 8:
This album is very honest lyrically. It's very musically simple, but if you're an indie rock fan you may or may not like this CD. It is most definitly nit happy, but I personally strongly recommend the album. Listen to the lyrics and enjoy the mussic
Rob gave it a 10:

andy gave it a 9:
great concept album, first couple of times I didn't get the story but now it's clear as a bell, a good record to slit your wrists to.
Dave E. gave it a 10:
Awesome album. It took me a few listens-to to finally get the story, which was part of the joy of the album: more layers just kept unfurling. In short, it's the story of two brothers who are both "bad people," one of them a self-righteous "Christian" politician who skews an election so he'd win (A Mind of Her Own) then kills his wife for trying to tell on him. The other is an alcoholic who was arrested for another DUI (To Protect the Family Name). Excellent album, it really sucks you into itself.
