I definitely did not emphasize the heavy use of dance rhythms in this album. Because many of the bands I listen to similarly emphasize dance rhythm and feel, I tend to take it for granted. Realizing this, I hope that I was able to point out the other (in this case, I think, more important) elements of the album. It doesn’t really come out until you listen to the whole thing with all of your attention and fervor. That being said, I really think it’s a lot more progressive than it seems on the first listen; I definitely only noticed the good grooves and interesting bells and whistles (figuratively) when I first got into this album.
