If you can't crank it up when Dashboard comes on, you need to just put the CD up on Amazon right now. That songs great, and I can't wait to listen to the disc a few more times.

just got it, listening now. I like it.
As an aside, I am great evidence that dl'ing music isn't evil. It turned me on to this band, and I decided to buy this album because I felt like I should give some of my money to them after getting turned on to them.

Fuck. This is the year when indie bands hit big. I'd say the internet exposure is more responsible for their success than radio exposure. Then again, I don't really listen to the radio, but I have a hard time imagining the Shins or Arcade Fire being played on most mainstream stations. MM is the closest to mainstream of the three, IMO.

I first heard of MM on the radio w/ Float On, and I think they got some MTV airplay, too. As far as Arcade Fire and the Shins, I have no idea how they got exposed...well, Garden State blew up the shins, at least as far as I can tell.
Congrats to MM on a great week. Good album and they deserve it after so many studio efforts.

I'd probably go as far as to say that it's now my favorite MM album.
