CD Reviews

Out of the 3, the best...

R. C. Hagy | Penacook, NH | 12/22/2006

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I have loved the Postal Service since the first time I heard them. It's too bad they are no longer together since the lead singer is now singing, last time I knew, with Deathcab for Cutie. Out of the 3 singles they have out, I thought this one was the best. Specifically I enjoyed The Shins version of "We Will Become Silhouettes" the most. Some of their other singles have a bad remix on them, but for the Postal Service fan, I'd recommend all 3 since they aren't that expensive plus each one does have the original song plus a remix, good or bad, and/or a cover from another band."
