My friend told me this is the album where you find out if they are giants or not and he fucking lied to me. Guess that's what I get for trusting men

The most popular album by TMBG, for good reason, Particle Man, Birdhouse in your soul, and Road Movie to Berlin are some of the best songs by the band. I don't think it stands up to Lincoln, but it's still pretty good.

It's a great album for newcomers to TMBG.

Some good songs but the production on a bunch of these kinda suck. Still I enjoyed it. It started stronger than it ended.
