I will admit that Trust vs. Mistrust and Spy vs. Spy seemed a little like The Strokes. They were still good but I didn't like them as much as the rest of the album. Your lead singer has an impressive range, though, going from high pitched, angst ridden vocals to almost Lou Reed like monotones. It almost sounds as if its not the same person from song to song (and if its not the same lead singer, I feel like a complete IDIOT right now). Its nice to see a group vary their sound so much from song to song.

So far my favorites are Brown Boxes, Oh Mandy, Direct to Helmet, Mountains and Japan is an Island.
We do have two singers. One singer sings on Brown Boxes, Direct to Helmet, and So Kind Stacy, and the other guy sings on the rest. Thanks for the comments though, it's good to hear opinions from new people all the time.
