The only thing i could think of was going to a Sunlandic Twins show and frat boys screaming "Play Oslo!" Me and my friends were saying that we all hated SPITA, Sunlandic, and Hissing Fauna when they came out, but that they all grew on us and we love them. This album will never do that and we are convinced that KB, for the past few records, has just been putting out crap and watching the indie crowd gobble it up. Luckily there is enough oM discography to rediscover The Bird Who Continues to Eat the Rabbits Flower. I'm just glad that they didnt show up at the E6 reunion. I hated it.

Little segments of it will pop into my head and just repeat - those snippets of pop perfection that are sprinked throughout. Today it was "Guess I should be happy for you/ For your success and all that." There are still moments that are just eye-roll inducing, like everytime I get to the part where Barnes says, "I'm just a black she-male." Please.
