Love this album; "The Great Escape" is my favorite track.

just another over-hyped NYC band with too many publicity dollars behind it and only ok/good songs to back it up. still better than Clap Yours Hands and Say Eh though

good review. they've gotten better with each release but still aren't anything special. i don't really understand why they're such a big deal right now.

It's the Yeah Yeah Yeahs syndrome...if you're a mediocre indie band from NYC the major media publications love you...it's like if you're a medicore mallcore band from NJ or screamo from LI you get way too much publicity on certain websites.

Salinger rip-off. I believe he wrote the short story To Esmé with Love and Squalor.

I've been listening to "With Love And Squalor" alot lately and I actually like it alot more than when I bought it. To me it's at lease a 8 out of 10.

A Hilary Duff fan could use the same reasoning no?
