Very exciting to see one of my favourite bands getting the Cross Blogination treatment. This is nothing like my favourite of their albums, but in terms of epic moments little of the rest comes close. I'm glad you boys liked it (and here's my review if youse are curious).

Love it mate, but doesn’t come close to Tool!

and who can blame him. They’re actually named after a Bonzo Dog Do Da Band song, which relieved me greatly. Fair to say they’ve usurped Tool as my favourite band, until there’s a new Tool album anyway. Also, try and track down their cover of Bjork’s ‘All is Full of Love’. It’s incredible. I’ll stop now. Will have to have a gushing sesh about them next time i see you!

Cheers fella, really enjoyed it, although maybe not as much as Gray, who I think may want to have sex with this album.

Dude, I’m SO incredibly happy that you like this album, strange that you mention Jack Kerouac as Mr Gibbard and Jay Farrar have done an album ‘one fast move or i’m gone’ based on ‘big sur’ (it’s the soundtrack to a doc about the book). I utterly adore this band, i’m not even sure if this is there best album…Grapevine Fires, as you may have gathered, is one of my favourite songs Ever ever. If you do plan on investigating further, i would suggest ‘Plans’ or ‘Transatlanticism’ be your next port of call, or, just get the lot. Also, you might want to have a listen to ‘The Postal Service’.
Enjoy the driving lessons, i’m going to start early next year i think.
Glad Rosie’s ok.
