KEPLER REVIEW:
The Fiery Furnaces - Bitter Tea
The most prolific band of this decade, and certainly one of it's finest: five great records in 4 years (plus the double album Matthew Friedberger released this year). Beat that. While their records often feel impenetrable, they aren't. Old Genesis fans who haven't dusted of the Lamb Lies Down on Broadway in a while should be worshipping these guys. Be careful though, the backward singing on this record can be utterly maddening.
Highlight: "Teach Me Sweetheart"
