Set Yourself on Fire is what you want. Well received album which is worth a few repeated turns. Great Girl/Boy vocals lead the twee rock! You get the odd sliver of electronica (a la Postal Service) but it's mainly an organic affair. Makes me smile constantly.
New album doesn't really change the formula much to start with (no surprises, less thrilling, but pleasant) but then really flails. Barricade (Track 8) is a B-Side from an Andrew Lloyd Webber musical that got scrapped. I don't even want to talk about it anymore. Please step carefully from there on in.
