anyone listened to this? i borrowed it off a mate and it's had 3 full spins in a row.
it's almost a little bit At The Drive-In/Sparta at times, and the singer sounds kinda like Robert Smith of The Cure. very cool disc indeed... now the save the $$$ to buy the damn thing!
early favourites include "Greater Omaha", "Mall Of America", and (probably my favourite track on the album) "The Happiest Place On Earth".
thoughts anyone?

It's a great record. Not as good as New End Original though.
That wasn't a scowl either mofo.

Heath, NEO rocks. But have you checked out Jonah's other shit, like Far? It's a fuckload better.

Where d'ya recommend I look for NEO in Perth? DaDa's? If it wasn't a scowl, what was it? I'll take suggestions for a better description! I heard the internet sent you an e-card....  |

i haven't heard much of bright eyes, but the few songs i've heard do nothing for me. Love NEO though.
...where's the connection between Desaparecidcos and NEO come from...sound/members/random outburst?

i just noticed the stuff ihad that i thought was bright eyes was actually just a previous band of one of the bright eyes members, being mislabelled.  |

This has got to be the work of a Bendogoian (Aaron excluded - he was online at the same time) |
