We\'ll be at The Egg, and Brooklyn, and Philly!!! The Egg is sold out, so is Brooklyn.

thanks, but i got my signed copy in the mail yesterday :). not really too thrilled with the album. i knew most of the songs and liked most of the ones i knew, but it\'s not very cohesive. i feel like the exclusion of \'fish out of water,\' \'big wrecking ball,\' and the \'the city\' would have helped the album flow a lot more. and i really like \'fish out of water\'...just has no business being on the same cd as most of the other songs. same with \'big wrecking ball.\' \'the city\' is way overproduced and it\'s a shitty song to begin with. however, \'uberglue\' was a big surprise and might be my favorite song on the album. both \'rain song\' and \'quad d\' fit the album nicely and are decent songs in their own right. it will be interesting to see if/how they incorporate female vocals into the live show.  so it\'s frustrating that after 7 years of production they could have added a lot by subtraction. it\'s definitely not as good as TMTP (and i can\'t imagine it ever will be), but there is enough good music on the album for it to grow on me

I didn\'t listen to all of it, but heard a pretty good chunk.  It was certainly not the most cohesive show and lacked a lot of flow with all the new songs and banter between songs.  That being said, there were definitely some cool jams and they took some of the new songs for a walk...Loose Change and Konkrete immediately come to mind.

People on PT hate on the best shows of the year, so it is no surprise they jumped all over this one.  It was a CD release show the night after they played an old skool biscuits show (in the same building).  It was pretty much to be expected.  I probably would have been pissed if I spent $30 to go, but I don\'t know how you can complain about a free stream

ugh Philly night two was awful. After being a biscuits fan for years I finaly got the oppurtunity to see them, so me and three friends trek from mass to philly for what had to be the worst set list ever. They kept pumping out the new songs and nobody was digging it. Add to that like six guest vocalist who sucked and tons of on stage babbling, including a ton of Mighty boosh references. Great city, fun time, terrible show.

yeah i watched some of the rebroadcast of that live stream for their release party, and wow they sounded awful. the guest vocalists were SO BAD! Even worse than barber and brownie! Just goes to show how much the studio can affect one\'s voice.

eeeeg, \'fish out of water\' was soooo stuck in my head last night, repeating over and over... After a couple of listens, I do like the new album.  I don\'t love it, but a lot of the songs are decent.  (I still prefer Senor Boombox, my first exposure to the Biscuits.) It\'s interesting how many radio-friendly tracks there are on Planet Anthem.    I am excited to hear some great jams coming out of these new songs!

i like the new album, i like how the biscuits are trying new things in the studio, and always evolving. their sound has significantly changed since encephalous crime.
