While this is still pretty good, the album feels a little bit lacking. The sound of the guitars aren't as a punch to the gut like it was for the last album. But there are some good songs here.

To me, this album is really underrated. The use of chiptune and powerpop is quite amazing. Tracks like KABOOM! and Fight For You show the band know how to write sticky choruses. Even the more softer cut's on here like With You and Before I Wake are down right beautiful. Any gripes i do have this is album are that the lyrics can be corny, like on the tracks, The Geeks Will Inherit The Earth and, Suburban Doxology. Another than that, this album needs to get to more people.

The tunes are pretty good. I just wish the vocals were more upfront but the mix of chiptune and powerpop they put on here is really interesting. Definitely worth a listen.

Even though this is like a bootleg version of Boards of Canada, I still can't help loving this album.
