If you are still listening to your old At the Drive-In records, I’ve got some good news for you. These kids all have a lot in common with you. Lucky for you, they have dug their way up from their genre graveyard to offer you something new. Well, kind of new. There were a few times I caught myself tapping my toe, but mostly out of impatience in having to hear it. There’s a Ned’s Atomic Dustbin cover, if that makes any difference to you. Six songs. Two from each band, one song together with both bands, and one song from two dudes whom I can only guess are in these bands. It took me a while to figure out what exactly was going on with this confusing band listing and layout. It took me even longer to figure out why I was spending all this time still listening to the damn thing.
