Ok, this may have been the most hyped record of 2009, but it definitely makes my shortlist for album of the year. You may have heard some of the singles in Where The Wild Things Are(excellent movie btw) or that one Cadillac commercial, but this is one album that should be heard in its entirety. It bridges the gap between being catchy and hook-filled a la Vampire Weekend while still sounding fresh and unique. If you haven't checked this one out yet, I highly recommend doing so now. Oh yeah-I'm probably in the minority on this, but if you only listen to one song (DON'T) the last track, Armistice, is my pick. They're all great though, so give it a true listen.
