Jackie Blue:
Do Make Say Think are consistently good but I have a hard time thinking of any of their albums, taken individually, as particularly "great".  Goodbye Enemy Airship the Landlord is Dead and Winter Hymn Country Hymn Secret Hymn both come close, though.

Given that, I do think that they have something really incredible in store for the new one, based on the totally awesome title and cover artwork.

TheFuriousWombat:
having heard it i can say you're right. it's not my favorite i don't think, but it is quite excellent. perhaps a little more accesible? there's even some vocals! part of my including them on the list stems from them being a really fantastic live band. live, the trumpet/sax/drums all become more pronounced, improvisations (minor ones, but they're there) in the aforementioned instruments exists, and often songs will be extended to their benefit. i love their album stuff but live they're even better.
