JeremyFMay 23, 2008Not their best album, but I definitely love it. There's not truly a bad track here, and it shows at least some sort of growth. I wrote a larger review on sputnik, so I won't get back into detail. Basically: Get Better, The ReArranger, and Help Help are the best tracks. Every song is catchy and likable. And easy to listen to. This is a nice cd.

JonL.May 23, 2008A hooky, confectioner's sugar-sweet collection of excellent indie pop.

Most of all it will go down like honey for Mates of State fans who have been following the band's progression from an edgy lo-fi duo to the indie rock hit making machine they have so gracefully become.

The formula isn't quite as fresh here as it has been on previous outings; after a few tracks, the amped-up glee-club vibe can begin to wear on all but the most devoted of nerves.

Gardner and Hammel haven’t come close to exhausting their songwriting prowess, and Re-Arrange Us is probably their most appealing album to date.
