Ok, so this one was a huge surprise! I initially downloaded it from eMusic because I wanted something I was unfamiliar with and something with a bouncy, dance sound. I fired the album up and listened to "Jump In The Pool" which immediately hooked me. Then, I was let down for the next 9 songs, non of which sounded all that similar to the opener. However, with each listen I've come to actually determine how brilliant the album is. The great trifecta of "White Diamonds", "Strobe" and "On Board", the latter of which is equally as engaging as "Jump In The Pool", really gives the record a huge boost into the late half of the album. "Lovesick" and "Skeleton Boy" are fabulous.
Of course, now you're starting to see them pop up everywhere. To quote "On Board", 'everyone's climbing on board'!
Can't Recommend It Enough
