New Church Album "Untitled No. 23"

[Glen]

Anyone else have this? I really like it a lot, as I mentioned in my post in the Concert section, and I was wondering if anyone else had picked it up. I've been so busy listening to this and the Pet Shop Boys' "Yes," that I haven't gotten into "Sounds of the Universe" much yet.

No, but Pitchfork gave it a nice review. I will probably pick it up, my first since their 2002 release.

Nothing compelling here even with a free download...

I didn't love "Anchorage" the first time I heard it, either, but it's grown on me a lot. The real standout tracks for me are "Pangea," "Deadman's Hand," and "Happenstance."

I've been enjoying it along with the rest of their catalog that I had missed; filled them in via emusic. And there's the live sessions on kexp.org.
