The group's major-label debut has all the plot twists you would expect in an action-packed hour long teen drama, complete with heartache, unmitigated jubilation and tons of contemplation. But the follow-up to 2003's breakthrough, Transatlanticism, also has something the TV show is lacking: gigantic power-pop melodies in songs such as 'Soul Meets Body' and 'Marching Bands of Manhattan' and wussy-boy lyrics that'll make your heart grow a few sizes. Exquisitely delivered on two platters of 180 gram vinyl, with the 4th side containing a vinyl only track.
