Comments: I don't know what is more interesting about the pseudo-mysterious Minneapolis 5-piece: that the bandmates go by the names of Harrison Ford movie characters, or that guitarist "Rick Deckard" acknowledging that the band "let[s] the songs kinda write themselves but then decorate them with pedals and other bells and whistles." It's a tossup.
What I do know is that this band is having fun, whether it's in paying homage to Han Solo or creating some of the most fantastical lyrics and sounds I've heard in quite some time. Which makes it an energetic, albeit unusual, album to get a hold of. If you like Dashboard Confessional or Motion City Soundtrack, I'd suggest checking out this album, particularly tracks 2, 5, 9 and 12.
