    Another note. When I put the cd in my computer at work, the only thing that populates on the album information is the album title. It reads "Soul Donkey" by Unknown Artist in my WMP. No track names. Just Soul Donkey.

    Anyone else getting this?

    My verdict is in. This is truly an awesome, less poppy album.

    Can't wait to see them in Austin.

    Funny - I got tickets last week to their show at Stubb's without knowing that they had come out w/ a new album. I saw this thread and realized that they did come out with a new record, so I downloaded it and have really enjoyed it so far. Can't wait to see them live.

    When I am not listening to it, I wish I was, and I sing it to myself in my head.

    It is like crack.

    I saw these guys a couple of years ago at Verizon, and that was the 2nd best show I've ever seen there.
