I liked it, a lot. Jeff, if your life's dream was to recommend shitty music to people you're failing miserably. Win! Never listened to these guys before. I liked it, a lot.

Anywho... I've heard this thing twice now, both before reading the review. The first time was during a party and then I played it in the background during work today. It stood out both times. I had no idea Danger Mouse was on this, though. Cool points for sure, but it was already solid without me knowing that. I definitely dig Shins dude (that's his real name) being so front and center in the mix, serves his voice well. I thoroughly approve of this review. Harumph!

Also...Don't know what to make of the fact that this reviewer thought that "Fate" was a let down. I loved that album and thought the songwriting and performances were miles ahead of "We all Belong" It'll be interesting to hear where "Shame Shame" ranks for me personally as I obviously seem to like a completely different form of Dr.Dog than this reviewer. Funny how that works. I’ve heard a live version of “Where’d All The Time Go” and I can 100% confirm that it is a completley different song than “Fat Dog”.

Speaking of which, how's that new Ke$ha jam holding up? Just teasing, kid. Stay groovy.

It's like cotton candy in the worst senses. I agree that the album starts off pretty strong (somewhat), but it’s not anything that seems very lasting. It’s like cotton candy in the worst senses.
