    The most underrated and favorite albums of 2011 was The Lonely Forest and Barely Blind. Both albums had incredible hooks with some of the catchiest choruses.

    This is one of the rare bands that is amazing live, their KEXP performance was amazing, the "Live at the Woods" stuff is great. I think if these guys did Open Sessions with the intheopen.tv guys, it would be mindblowing.
