So I've decided that I greatly misjudged the SSPU album and I'm here to let you all know of my second thoughts.  After hearing "Lazy Eye" on the radio a few times, and enjoying it quite a bit, I decided to give Carnavas another spin.  Funny thing is that it was amazing.  What once sounded flat and uninspired was now catchy and full of life.  "Well Thought Out Twinkles" and "Common Reactor" were catchy; "Future Foe Scenarios" had an intensity that I'd missed the first time.  The songs started to seem like actual songs instead of a sheer rock face of impenetrable noises.  I don't know what changed, but I really like the album now.  I hope I didn't ruin it for anybody.
Enjoy sounds!

Sometimes I don't really like a song until I hear it in the context of an album.  Other times I can't get into an album until I isolate a single track to give attention to.  The latter is the case with Silversun Pickups.  My girlfriend [who is fantastic] picked up their album having heard the single "Lazy Eye" on one of the five best rock radio stations in the country.  I was excited for new material to listen to but failed to really crack the album.  Almost at random I picked this track for the E-Box and it really started to grow on me.  It's nothing earth-shattering, but it's a good listen.  Give it one.

Note: They also played at Coachella this year.
