Redefine was also played live in Australia but no video for that has popped up yet.

So far people who have heard it have said very positive things and have also described it as being more mellow.
Kenny described it as being half of their most intense songs and half of their quitest songs.

[Uwe Blab]

Can't wait. I need to listen to that EP again sometime soon.

[zubinmoosa]

Really excited for this. If this can come anywhere close to The Red Tree it will be fantastic

[unwritten]

Can't wait.

[fadedmemories]

No matter how hard I try, I just can't get into them, even if I recognize the fact that they are a solid band.

[sean-reid]

This album is one of my favourite this year. Its up there with Thrice and MO.

[HoldThatSound]

My most anticipated for 2009. That and Person L's The Positives.

They said TWIWTLB will be on vinyl too. Super-stoked.

[Greg.Kushlan]

I can't wait, this and the new thrice on the same day...

[fly_guy]

Still REALLY excited. Most anticipated for sure

[zubinmoosa]

Great review by my man Sean. Saw them live last week and the new songs sounded great

[sean-reid]

Thanks.
I'm hoping they come over with Say Anything, whenever that is.

[HoldThatSound]

Yeah, I can't wait to see them with Say Anything and Moving Mountains on October 17th!

[Greg.Kushlan]

I just finaly got around to listening to the Hold That Sound EP, I'm even more excited for this album now...

[bedwettingcosmo]

Wasn't overly impressed by Hold That Sound EP, but The Red Tree was one of my favorite releases of the year by them. Definitely been looking forward to this one for a while.

New video for Hold That Sound.

[element4433]

The new song is bad. I was really let down.

[HoldThatSound]

You kidding? I love it.

[softhands]

I'm going to wait til I buy it to listen to this LP, but I know it is going to be good.

[mysensesfailed3]

wow listened to the red tree last night. so excited for this. wayyyyy more than brand new

[element4433]

You kidding? I love it.Nope. It sounds like something they'd play during a training montage of a teen football movie.

[Crowe41]

I really hope they bring back some of the extended bridges to the new record like they had with Are We Really Happy? Kinda missed those on The Red Tree but either way I'm excited for new Moneen!!

Hands down best live band I've ever seen.

[HoldThatSound]

I've never seen them live, but I'm going to this October. SO EXCITED!

[softhands]

Hands down best live band I've ever seen.

[yoyostring]

[gladnads]

Mine says it hasn't even shipped yet.

Anyone know what the deal is?

[drudo182]

Moneen is still the best live band I've ever seen.

[KingsCrossing]

This is a pretty solid album.

[underthetalking]

Best live band I've seen. Hopefully my pre-order came in today, but I wouldn't count on it because I've had nothing but shitty experiences with the Vagrant store.
