I'm taking advantage of NPR Music's First Listen series to get a sneak peak at the new Peter Bjorn and John album, Gimme Some.
I wasn't a fan of their first album (which totally puts me in the minority because EVERYBODY likes that album). And I definitely didn't like the second one (which puts me in the majority). I really, really like this new one.
Writer's Block seemed so... twee. I don't really like twee. It's kind of a turn-off. But Gimme Some is awesome. It bounces, sounds nicely polished and doesn't sound twee at all.
Favorite track: Maybe Macabre

I agree, I really enjoy this album. I heard it on NPR (full stream) and will definitely be going back for more!
Thanks for the heads up... great band!
Rats, I missed this free play on NPR. But I'm glad to hear it's a good record.
