    While Mythomania doesn't necessarily punch its way out of that paper bag, the album does feel more immediate, its melodies are more memorable, and the songs do occasionally allow themselves to become more ragged.

    Mythomania is overdriven, with sparks flying from the bolts in its neck and fruit machine cherries lining up in its vacant eye sockets. But it sounds perfect somehow.
  3. Drowned In Sound
    60
    It stands alone as an album which is well-rounded--there's not much here which is lacking in quality, but much is lacking oomph.
