    While not as strong as their debut, there are some rather special tracks on this, particularly the download / vinyl only single, Blood Meridian.

  1. As exhilarating as it all may seem on the surface, there's little here that we haven't heard before.

    You're left with the uncomfortable sensation of having walked in on six serious young men, lost in their own indie-rock majesty. [Jun 2006, p.110]
  3. A monumental, spectacular achievement.
