    In a time when so many bands don't know why they exist but keep on vanning anyway, his honest tale is touching and instructive.

    Sad farwell from a band that rivals radiohead and pink floyd. Never got that recognition. I will miss them very much!

    I don't know if it's the BEST Grandaddy record, but this is a pretty boss record in and of itself. From the creepy "What Happened?" to the stunning "Shangri-La," the record is again perfect from start to finish, the third time in a row Grandaddy's managed to do that. It's a pity they won't be putting out any more music; we've lost one of the greatest bands of the last decade this year.… Expand
