I take a train to work every day so as awesome as this artwork is, it is a little unsettling haha

Brother, Sister is their best album, and ties in pretty much every aspect of their style from all their other releases.

That's the story I always heard: The shepherds were watching over their elephants when the angel appeared to them, and the wise men took a train that followed the scent of cotton candy all the way to Bethlehem.

mewithoutYou always put the ART in Artwork. This one is less abstract than the others but still beautiful. Love the colors.

Nice breakdown, thanks... I'm more into folk music so I'll check out what you recommended, thanks


Completely agree with the original (and secondary) suggestions. Brother, Sister is the perfect blend of their wide-ranging sound. If yr more into folky though, It's All Crazy might be more up yr alley. I wasn't a big fan of A->B Life but Catch is wonderful as well.

These guys have never let me down and im sure this will be a new classic by them. I hope it will be a mix of Catch for us the foxes and Itīs all crazy... Maybe thats the same as Brother, sister?


It sounds as if this album will be a mixture of all their previous sounds. I think yr pretty dead-on with a combo of Catch and It's All Crazy though I would say Brother, Sister is more a progression from Catch versus a mix of the previously mentioned. Honestly, I'm just picking nits b/c it generally is a mix of those 2.

I could NOT be more excited for this one! I would never go as far as to say It's All Crazy was a disappointment moreso than just a (albeit far) branch off for the band. I love it just as much as the previous records but from what I've read about it so far Ten Stories sounds like it will be more of their unique blend of genres which is what made me fall in love with the band in the first place.

They never dissapoint, the artwork for the albums are beautiful. Getting the LPS for mewithoutYou are worth it just for the album cover.

Anyone on hear will tell you to start with Brother, Sister then move on to Catch for us the Foxes and than It's All Crazy. If you like harder stuff than check out A--->B.

Anyway Album art like this makes me want to buy the album.

Reminds me of Water For Elephants. Not feeling it at all. I guess it makes sense if the cover ties to the lyrics or something.

Love how it has the same feel as their other album art.

That's because Vasily Kafanov has designed all their album covers and he has a very noticeable style.
