LotJ at their record label, Flapping Jet - includes capsule reviews, mp3's, and a photo of Lana Rebel's amazing full-back tattoo.

a review (based solely on a listen and a half to Hawaii):
Indie-metal kinda like Don Caballero, the Champs, etc. (only not so mathy as the former and without the NWOBHMisms of the latter - though Tim Green of the Champs did record this record) (though that is neither here nor there). This is great shit, anyway, and the charming loch-ness-monster line drawings on the cover make me wish I could hide a tiny camera inside the radio station's copy of it, to capture the startled reactions of indie rockers who assume that such a package could only contain something sweetiepie. Quite recommended.
