Fantastic Album

I'm surprised to see no one's commented on this album. This is a fantastic album. Their music can be quite experimental, but this album is especially accessible. I've played it for friends all over the world, and people always comment.. "This is amazing... who is this? etc.." I'll never forget the first show I saw of them in a old theatre in Montreal... Magical, trippy, blew my mind. Creative genius. Gorgeous sounds.

Made me forget about reality

This is my kind of album really. Creative, original, great ambiance. This is pure talent at work here, the album is a must. Each songs are their own little world and when I listened to this album the first time, I simply forgot about everything else I could have been doing, I simply listened to it from beginning to end without doing anything else and let me tell you that it wasn't time wasted.

Love it

I loooove "the great escape" --- The piano in that song is so pretty!
