This is the band all the kool kids are listening to these days. After much hype, I decided to give it a spin. I give it just 6 Screwy's out of 10. Not horrible just kinda boring. I haven't listened to much of their other stuff to know how it compares. I do enjoy this tune though.

Is the Screwy rating based on an ascending or descending scale?

I'll assume you meant the former thus I give it 3 Screwey's.

For comparison sake, Foster The People - Funked Up Kids gets a 6.

It could be Funked up Jizz Mopping for all I care, it still gets a 6.

Not as good as any of their previous albums but still a solid band. Difficult to listen to a lot of their stuff consecutively but flavor it in with some Black Keys and Alabama Shakes and you've got yourself a good indie mix.

One of their best songs, paired perfectly with a great movie:

Exactly.

Spot on. I think the audio is weird on that Warrior clip. To be fair, I usually listen to these cats on vinyl.

ps: i think the cool kids stopped listening to The National a couple of years ago... last gig, all i saw was old farts like myself.
