I like, a LOT.
I'm hoping for more handshake/future reflections type sound.
I imagine Lady Dada's Nightmare is gonna be a fun one :D

Just had my first listen to the album.
Wow, this album is full of win! They ditched the elctro vibe in Orcacular Spectacular and brought in psychedelic surf rock influence for this new album. A bit less "poppy", so it might not be as enjoyable for big fans of their last album.
Lady Dada's Nightmare is not what I expected.
I like the direction this band is going.

"Hey everybody, the album leaked, and we wanted you to be able to hear it from us. We wanted to offer it as a free download but that didn't make sense to anyone but us"
So here it is, the official stream :

"Over the weekend Jónsi (Sigur Rós) visited the Jo Whiley Show on BBC Radio 1, where he performed the title track from his EP Go Do and a cover of MGMT’s “Time To Pretend.” The cover is a good reminder of two things: How great “Time To Pretend” is, and how delicately gorgeous Jónsi Birgisson’s falsetto can sound. It’s just him and a piano, so you might notice that he purposely skips over some of the words, touching down lightly on the nouns."

The best description I've heard for the song Brian Eno, is a Scooby Doo chase song.

haha! that's so accurate, it's like the scooby doo gang should be doing one of those chase scenes ala benny hill where brian eno is chasing them in and our of doors of a hall way and a few times they're chasing him.
