I don't personally want any covers on an album where it's already difficult to make choices as to cuts.

Hence my edit, Matt was throwing around a few particular phrases that are found in songs that may very well get cut from my list. Plus, their sound... well production, has grown immensely so it'll be tough not to just choose the more recent stuff.

I put their released b-side list in the main thread I believe. Also Robyn and No Professionals weren't officially released to the best of my knowledge.

I'm worried that my complete love and obsession with The National will make it nearly impossible for me to love the new PJ album. Lets face it, The National are way better (now) than PJ is in it's current state. I hope #10 proves me wrong.

It's not even close. I'm only mildly looking forward to the next PJ album and with the National I felt like a kid waiting for Christmas.

I'm not sure how you can leave Slipping Husband off that list.
