I'm not sure why I like Sugar We're Going Down and Dance Dance don't much enjoy any of this. Light 'Em Up in particular lacks teeth. It's fine. The acoustic guitars on Young Volcanoes was a bad choice.

Alive 2007Daft Punk

Rated 10/10

Much like I only thought Metalica was okay until I heard their live album, I only thought Daft Punk was pretty good until I heard their live album. Blew me away.

It started slow and a little country and I didn't think I'd like it, but I cannot stop listening. For listens in and I'm in love with orchestral springstreen. Gorgeous songs, beautiful emotion.

ContraVampire Weekend

Rated 10/10

The album has way more energy and interest than I remembered. Vibrant and fun. Lacks some of the coherency and whimsy from the self titled album, but still very much worth the listen
