Right on... I found this to be much more enjoyable than the 1st Carpet Bomb release (which I loved!)... easily one of my tops this year. There was a page that was about these guys I thought (not the audio page, but another) but I can't find it... anyone know what I'm referring to or am I thinking of something else completely?
