even though the album has one song that is a billion times better than the rest of the album ("wolf like me" of course) the rest of the album is amazing, just not as amazing. it's creative, it's bold, and it's different, though not too different. the thing is that it's impossible to be completely original anymore, because there has been so much musical history, that even if u think you're doing something novel, someone else has done it years before, u just didn't hear it. anyways, the album works because it doesn't try to keep itself grounded to one genre or mold, but it does enough too keep it self incredible cohesive for such diversity. impressive.

Bands like tv on the radio, gorillaz, radiohead, and bjork are laying down the bluprints to the future of music. I personally don't feel this album is going to get the respect it deserves until then. Which is a shame due to that this is one of the most mystical albums i have heard in a long time. It's an album that if you just sit back and let it guide you, you'll end up in places in yourself you did not even know existed. I saw them in march at the metro in chicago, and when i looked around in the crowd and saw many people where just grooving with there eyes closed. Almost in a state of meditation. The next day i got a flu for a week, and if the cause was going to that show then it was definatly worth it.

An album of stunning vision and great depth. A truely invigorating experience, i didn't get this until late on in 2006 but it blew my mind and remains one of my top albums of that year

A must buy for any good music fan

Brilliant.
One of the most impressive bands I heard in the last years. It definitely share's the intention of the new wave bands in the late seveties: going into the unknown

The only reason I gave this album 2 stars instead of 1 is because of "Wolf Like Me" being so kick-ass. I was extreamly disapointed at the remainder of the album. Where did all the energy go? Or more importantly, how does a song like "Wolf Like Me" even get on a record being so different than all the other songs. It sounds like a completely different band.

What is up with this album getting such good reviews. I'm all for diversity, but I just don't get why people think this music is so great . With that being said, I would still rather listen to this than anything on pop radio.
