I've not given it a proper go yet but 'Maximalist' from his first record is one of my DJ's best friend tunes. You know, the ones that nobody knows but everybody likes.
Will make sure I listen to it this weekend.
It's a complete grower, I've listened to the stream about 10 times now & I've gone from minor dissappointment to 8/9 out of 10. Really good, if slightly sprawling & over-ambitous record. To be fair I was bored stiff with The Suburbs so I'm gald they changed things up a bit. It reminds me a bit...
Fingers crossed for the rest of the record. For me they've never quite managed to top the emotional depth & consistency of Funeral but have written plenty of great songs since then.
