09.13.06 - Junior Boys: So This Is Goodbye [Domino, 2006]

Well, there you have it. The wait is over. The binary string in the last post was used just to throw off the geeky readers out there. If you are a nerd, let this be a lesson.

Anyway, it’s a great album, despite the departure of Johnny Dark (who, in my opinion, really made “Last Exit” the album it was). They somehow gracefully circumnavigated the “sophomore slump” that strikes all lesser groups. I’ve probably listened to “In The Morning”, “Like A Child” and “FM” more times than I’d like to admit, and they just don’t get old. The album is solid straight through. Amazing.
