I feel that artistically, "The Walk" was kind of their high-water mark (have you heard the incredible Japanese-CD-only bonus tracks?), though Anthem grew on me once I got past the fact that every song is … uh … an anthem of some sort.

Oh Broom Hilda, you're so lovely.

Jreat gob, internet.

That's your purse!
