#1208 Typhoon - White Lighter

I was pretty underwhelmed by their first album, but these guys found another gear here, getting into late Modest Mouse / Wolf Parade / Polyphonic Spree kind of huge fist-pumping / fingers grasping at the heavens kind of stuff with some big moments for getting your heart all sweptupinta.

Wolf Parade in particular comes to mind - I love me some Apologies to the Queen Mary, and this has some of that raw-nerve electricity. With more horns. It demands a little more time to worm around in my veins, but in the meantime I have to admit these emo motherfuckers have my attention 3.5/5
