    Terrible music.... those who think otherwise should give their head a shake... a very hard shake.

    Just terrible. Their worst album gets their best results, the world has gone mad. If only Kevin Barnes had married the woman he was dating when he wrote "Neat Little Domestic Life" we wouldn't have to wade through this train wreck of a record.

    Lyrics are so bad it ruins the whole album. Idiot Scenesters. Probably think this and Neon Bible are still in the running for album of the year. No way. Check out "Bible Universe" by Everything, Now! ... Thats an album! That is if youre... indie enough. you people make me sick. metacritic sucks ! they didnt even review margot and the nuclear so and so's !!!!! What?????????

    If there is one thing in this world that can elevate even the weakest of lyrics from the trough of personal diary hell, it’s a catchy melody. Thankfully this record overflows with them.

    For the most part an exercise in Prince-like electro-funk, full of squelchy keyboard fuzz and chicken-scratch guitar noise and absurdly complicated falsetto harmonies.

    A wonderfully dance-ridden companion ot the intelli-disco carved out on 2005's The Sunlandic Twins. [Jan/Feb 2006, p.81]
