It's also the first Handsome Furs album written exclusively on keyboards. This was a conscious decision. On this album they use keyboards and drum machines to forge life-affirming anthems taut with muscle and blood.

Handsome Furs was a Montreal-based indie rock duo which consisted of Dan Boeckner, of Wolf Parade and Atlas Strategic, and his now ex-wife, Alexei Perry. Handsome Furs signed on to Sub Pop Records in late 2006, and released their first full-length album, Plague Park, in 2007. Handsome Furs" was the title of a short story that Alexei was writing at the time of the band's conception.

As a Wolf Parade fan, I was curious about the release of another album from Handsome Furs, the husband and wife duo comprised of Wolf Parade frontman Dan Boeckner and his wife Alexei Perry. When I tracked down one of the new songs,"Damage," I was stunned to find out that it was as immediately appealing as anything I had heard Wolf Parade done prior.
