This one is a keeper. Even though some of it is creepy, half of it is gem. Cool idea behind the lyrics.
Had this album come out in the early 00s, everyone would be spitting on it nowadays. It seems Mikal Cronin is suffering from a reverse Benjamin Button syndrome, he's getting older physically but his mind is getting ever so younger. I wouldn't call this garage rock but emo. It all sounds like My Chemical Romance, Fall Out Boy and Panic! at the Disco mushed into one record.
This is a brilliant debut album, the songs are simple and catchy. A bit of pathos though, but that's fine for a guy in his mid-twenties.
