   Dave Fridmann ruined "Some Loud Thunder"? I don't think so-- that album is brilliant! And this one is damn good. I even like the poppier tunes that no one seems to be talking about-- "Headshock" and "Hang Them All". You're just not listening right. P.S. They're brilliant live.… Collapse

   This is far from a disappointment. The vocals are not quite as memorable as The Loon, but the songs are cohesive and catchy. Songs like "Time of Songs" and "Lines" are classic.

Both bands show enormous song-writing talent, but just need to be re-inspired.… Expand

   A slight step back from their gorgeous debut album 'The Loon'. Still a groovy album, lots of TnT's charm isn't lost. But the problem is that a lot of the songs are quit predictable here. The great built-ups from the first album are rare here. One of those really cool built-up songs is Lines. It builts momentum. It has great energy and is one of the best songs of the album. There are definately some solid and entertaing tracks here. As well as a few gorgeous parts, but it feels too polished over all. Hope their third album will be better. Not bad at all, but The Loon is still the reason why we love them.… Expand
