Yeah, it leaked. Does anyone else have it? The first three songs on it are incredible. After that ... eh. Not so much. Your thoughts?

The folder I downloaded just called it "Untitled 2006" but apparently they're going to call it "Return to Cookie Mountain" (no joke).

Maybe they just signed with Interscope to fuck with them. "You think you're getting a marketable band? Watch this. Our new album will be called Return to Cookie Mountain. And you thought that "Woke up in a magic nigger movie" is a risque lyric to start off an album with? Just watch. Try and stop us."

Well then they uphold the tradition, it was the same thing on Desperate Youth, Blood Thirsty Babes. The Wrong Way, Staring at the Sun and Dreams are fantastic yet the rest are more jammy and less immediate.

I think it grows on you over time.  I didn't quite "get" Ambulance or Bomb Yourself the first time I heard them, but really warmed to them eventually.

Their live show left something to be desired, but when we saw them they'd been touring non-stop for almost a year.  Tunde's voice was pretty much shot.

I am completely gay for TV on the Radio, well except they seem like a less good Clap Your Hands and Say Yeah, but that has as much to do with the context I first heard them in as anything.

So where did you get this latest albym?  Hmmmmm?

I want to get Oinked aswell, in the mean time, I'll rely on the trickle down effect.  Eventually it will come to me.
