so cassadaga came out 3 days ago and i've already listened to it. that in itself is awesome; i never buy albums :[ and if i do, it's never that soon. ANYWAYS! I got it yesterday and listened to it through last night. wow. wowowowowow. it's brilliant. it's different than the last two albums, in a grown-up sort of way. no more sappy sad conor. not that sad conor is bad, no no, that is why we love him. it's not fake or 'refined' necessarily either. it's … eh, just good. so go out and buy it!
