If the two songs they have made available on their myspace are any indication of the quality of the album overall -- then holy shit folks! I dont think Built to Spill has ever really made music like this before, but I likes it alot. And I'm usually not a huge fan of elongated jam sessions.

I know theres some built to spill fans here. So celebrate with me in anticipation!


Goin Against Your Mind - Starts off like a song by the feelies with the simple guitar part and the steady, pumping beat. But by midpoint its turned into a total spatial jam session, but it doesnt lose any of its steam in the transition.

Conventional Wisdom - Sounds like an old school Matthew Sweet song only better and with catchier guitar parts/tricks sprinkled throughout. Very rocking.

I have a bunch of just randomly downloaded Built to Spill songs on my computer. "Kicked it in the Sun" is one of my all-time favorite songs. I also really like "Reasons." I decided to download a whole album of theirs (Ancient Melodies of the Future) and didn't like it all that much.

The music square won't come on my screen. What sort of music is it?

Ancient Melodies isn't that great of an album, save a track or two. Get/download Keep It Like A Secret for the win.

Ancient Melodies is definately the weak link in what is a string of 4 great albums.

There's Nothing Wrong With Love
Perfect From Now On
Keep it Like a Secret

All are albums that would recieve a grade of A or better.
And hopefully joining them soon...

Because if you can't rock out to "Sidewalk," then you have no fucking soul.
