I hope this means they're coming back to the states. Great band. Listening to the songs on bandcamp and it sounds great to me. Not what I would consider Brunch Rock by any stretch of the imagination, though certainly a progression from some of their early material. Love that stuff as well, but some people aren't interested in making the same record over and over.

I will certainly give this record more attention with an open mind. I don't want Cheveu to repeat themselves either. Just so long as the records are GOOD, I'm happy. And on that point (on first listen anyhow) I'm undecided.

Having said that, I didn't like 13th Floor Elevators 'Easter Everywhere' OR Peter Hammill 'Flight' (Side 2 of 'A Black Box') OR Wire '154' (and so on) the first time I heard them. Which AMAZES me now that they're all-time favourites of mine. That sort of gets me thinking about the changing times and shorter attention spans encouraged by the internet. Records often take a while to insinuate and reveal themselves and I'm probably less likely to persevere these days when the choice of listening is virtually infinite. Which is a mistake, no doubt.

this is a just plain weird album. did NOT like it at first, but i stuck with it and now i think it's pretty great. there's a lot to take in, lots of odd details and twists and turns. it's a demanding listen for sure.

there's only one Brunch-esque moment on here, the wordless verse part of "Polonia" sounds like it could be in a car commercial or something. but the rest of that song is strange and all over the place.

Pirate Bay is great, one of their best songs in my opinion. Some parts of this still have me scratching my head, but perhaps thats a good thing. Definitely gets better with every listen.
