Chills. Or maybe it's just too cold outside, but this is a freakin' awesome recording. With a nice new Air album coming out and a new Lucinda Williams tomorrow, this is one happy moi.

Can't get into this album at all. It's maudlin, depressing and there's not a memorable song in the bunch. The guys voice is depressing. Then again, I thought Funeral was vastly overrated.

For anyone who's got the deluxe edition, could you give us a description?
From what I've heard, the only extras are printed booklets (no bonus disc).
Is the cool packaging worth the extra cash?

I'll go against popular opinion (at least from critics) here. I thought Funeral was a very good but very overrated album. I think Neon Bible is utter perfection. I can't believe how much I love this album.
