When I first picked up this album I thought that this was God's gift to rock and roll. Quasi as saviors of rock. But after repeated play, the album doesn't seem to have the backbone that it once did. Maybe it's the overexposure...The album kicks of with a bang: 'Our Happiness is Guaranteed.' This is a sonic masterpiece: dissonance and a frantic backbeat. This momentous opening is follwed by an equally stunning 'I Never Want to See You Again.' This might be the follow up to 'In the First Place' from R&B. The band explores more sonic possibilities: rich acoustic guitars, 'fruity' organs, and crisp guitars--even backwards guitar on 'Tomorrow You'll Hide.' The second highlight of this album might be the wistful 'You F--ked Yourself.' This is Dylan's 'Idiot Wind' retold through an overexposure to Daniel Johnston.The album closes with an interesting sonic collage: 'Only Success Can Fail Me Now.' And you never want this song to end. It's so beautiful. Can we be indie rock and say this word?
