    After enjoying their self titled for 2 years, I finally got ahold of "Ruining it for Everybody" and I'm blown away. It's so damn good. Seriously, get it in your possession.

    Still can't believe these guys only have 436 listeners. So underrated.

    I meant to post something here in response, but my internet died at the time and i lost my shout ;) Anyway, the EP itself has 4 songs, but in those rarities you can download from the Lost & Found Music Library, there are more songs that are listed as being from the Marketplace recording. i've got a total of 8 (including those from the CD) listed as Songs from the Marketplace.

    Oooh, free EP? Jealous. Doesn't Songs From the Marketplace only have four songs anyway, though? Just a heads-up: The S/T appears on eBay now and then. Prices aren't too bad either.
