One complaint:
On Cryptograms, they feel the need to establish that they are a stoner band by having the lighter going off and the inhaling sound at the beginning of 'Spring Hall Convert', its not like we don't get that you smoke pot.
Its painfully obvious in interviews where the singer talks about 'lyrics bleeding into the music' as being something that turns him on, and its just painfully obvious that its also just a masking of his stoner lyrics which will never be 'inpenetrable' no matter how barried in the mix they are -- they are still boring stoner lyrics at times.
Plus the drummer talks about how he works at american apparel so it sort of seals the whole deal for me as this band coming across as more scenester then sincere.
