Fair enough. I like FYE mainly because they typically carry music I love and I'm not a big fan of amazon. I screwed up a few times ordering unfortunately so I've learned my lesson that amazon is just not for me Smile


Yeah you do have to be very careful who you order from, especially used. I typically try to go for "like new" condition from a very high rated seller if the price is decent. Always a bit of risk involved though I suppose.

Have you listened to any other Menomena albums? I think Mines has some of their strongest songs (Tithe & Sleeping Beauty), but their other albums are great, too.

This week I bought...

The Cure - The Head on the Door
Elvis Costello - My Aim is True
The Stooges - Funhouse

Funhouse and The Head on the Door are alright, but My Aim is True is great.

Friend or Foe is also a really good one. I mean, I'm surprised Menomena isn't more popular on these sites, they seem to fit in perfectly.

Friend and Foe is great! I love the raw sound of I Am the Fun Blame Monster, though. I haven't managed to listen to their new album in its entirety, but from the few songs I heard it sounded great. The member who left, Brent Knopf, has an awesome solo project too - Ramona Falls.

Yeah I listened to Friend Or Foe earlier this week, liked it quite a bit too. Agree with Happymeal that they should be a bit more popular around here.
