    Back when me and my buddy Mark were on a work term together we swapped iPods for a day to check out each other's music. The only thing I still remember listening to was this album.

    He seemed a little surprised when I said this album ruled and included the final track in that opinion. Honestly, and no offence to liars on this, I think the ending might be the best part.

    me and some friends sometimes joked about making a unicorns cover band called The Horses (not more than horses but at least we exist still).

    2014 is a banger. I can promise you it's the last song I listened to in 2013. Emasculate the Masculine is one of the better unicorn X the Ys song.

    If you're wondering my opinion on Demos, rough demo cuts >>>>> remixes

    Absolutely one of my favourite discoveries from the last few years. Was this album perfect for walking to a coffee shop in a light rain? Yes. Is it good when reading a book in bed? Yes. Is it good to work to? Yes. An album of all seasons

    The Futureheads were the second band I ever went to see live. They were the second opening act for Hot Hot Heat but me and my buddy Ian were there to see The Futureheads. They played everything on this album and it felt like they played everything like 15% faster. Fun times.

    Clangy guitars, harmonized vocals. I kind of feel like the futureheads didn't properly get their due.

    Also, I heard this cover of Hounds of Love before hearing the original so in my mind this is the 'real' version. I know that's not right but also it's a real good cover

    Legit, this is one of my favourite Modest Mouse songs. It got me to pick up Get Here and Stay. I think it's a great blend of both bands sounds and somehow ends up more spacey and relaxed than I think either band is on their own. I find it almost hypnotic in its looping

    As with basically every remix, I find the two on the b side of this single to be, at kindest, unneeded.
