Holy crap, it's here :love:. Well, it's officially released on August 22, but has been on various file sharing sites since June 10, apparently. Anyway, I have got Happy Hollow, and it is an amazing CD. The Ugly Organ was one of my top five albums ever, and this CD hasn't disappointed. It is easily on par with Organ. The band hasn't let the departure of Gretta Cohn on cello affect the quality of their music, and instead have included some beautiful five-part horn sections, but not in a ska sort of way. Really nice and theatrical. Incredible stuff. I really recommend it if you liked any of their previous material. I am definitely buying this when it comes out. Very worth it.

GET THIS CD. Seriously. It is so good. I like it as much, if not more than, The Ugly Organ. And that is saying something.

Tracks you have to get:

Dorothy at Forty
Bad Sects
Big Bang
Bad Science
Retreat!
Rise Up! Rise Up!
So-So Gigolo
Hymns for the Heathen

The entire CD is the goat, though.

Didn't love it as much as I loved the Ugly Organ on first listen but it's cursive so it's really good.
