Midlake - The Courage of Others
Expectations are a real bitch. I loved Van Occupanther. A lot. A whole lot. So my anticipation for the followup was quite high. Surely they'd bust out some new jams like Young Bride or Roscoe, right?

On the first few listens, you bet it is. However, I believe my expectations will fade away and I'll come around to this.. but it's no Van Occupanther 2, which is really all I wanted.Find Out More →
