Promising and somewhat unique young band mostly discards what made them promising and somewhat unique on their full-length "debut". Yes, I'm going to sound like a snob here for a second, but I saw these guys back when they weren't nothin'. I saw them play a number of times in their (and my) hometown of Albany, NY, and they were an incredibly tight, exciting live band and I picked up a copy of their proper debut, the self-released Circus Music. I lost touch with what was happening with them as they grew in popularity....

You mean Jay Bilas the ESPN Basketball Analyst? That's riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight. Jay Bilas the professional, middle-aged white man? Yeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaah. Jay Bilas, an attorney with the law firm of Moore and Van Allen, PLLC? Yes, that one. Daaaaaaaaaaaaamn. Bilas tweeted a bunch of Young Jeezy and Rick Ross lyrics, and people thought his account was hacked, but it wasn't. It was just a white dude loving him some Trap Rap.

Ten members who play everything from exotic woodwind instruments to roaring guitars is not a common group composition after all, so when Aficionado takes [...]
