Write what you know. It is the most common advice offered to young songwriters, and it’s probably the best. But in the case of Faunts’ approach to songwriting, such advice would be misguided and reductive at best. This is a group of musicians who write what they can imagine. At once symphonic and sprawling; ambient, yet driving, Faunts’ latest articulation, the full-length Feel.Love.Thinking.Of. (out February 17th, 2009 on Friendly Fire Recordings) is the culmination of a year of touring, recording, and meticulous exploration of this transcendent imagination. With its effervescent guitars, mathematic loops and synthesizers, surging drums, and seemingly nomadic bass lines, Feel.Love.Thinking.Of. is a fluidic expression of Faunts’ painstaking attention to instrumentation and arrangement which allows the buoyantly defiant mood of the record to transverse any one song in particular. This is a band of perfectionists - every movement agonized over, every melody deconstructed and explored - whose labors have resulted in an expansive, layered, textured, and sublime collaboration. Feel.Love.Thinking.Of. perfectly encompasses the band’s ambitious, imaginative devotion to sculpting not only a musical moment, but an entire atmosphere which accompanies that moment.

M4 pt 2 is good, but their best song is Will You Tell Me Then in my opinion... it has this sad ring to it. other great songs are Das Malefitz, Sleepwalker and Twenty-Three, those are so relaxing...

Totally agree! M4 part 2 is SO GOOD! Thanks for Mass Effect, such a great game with such a great song. Yes, it does goes well with the game... it has a new wave sound and it matches perfectly. Now I wanna hear more about this CANADIAN BAND. :D

Can't believe M4 part 2 is not higher up in the charts. It's their best track, hands down.

Less indie rock, more electronica a la M4 parts I & II. That's all I'm sayin'.

These guys should have done the whole soundtrack for Mass Effect, their music feels like space-age theme music

Pitchfork Review 7.2/10
There are many dubious reasons for a band to release a remix album, whether it’s to kill a contract or kill time. But when Edmonton quintet Faunts released theirs (the imaginatively titled Faunts Remixed) late last year…
