Hope for the future establishes itself early as one of the album’s leading themes. On “Golden Boy,” one of the album’s catchiest tunes, vocalist Ed Robertson sings, “Hey golden boy / Don’t let the darkness in you take you away from yourself / Nobody else, there’s nobody left to make you run.” Upbeat, strong chords, with some funky, synthesized piano pieces create a playful sound, which, in combination with some classical violin pieces, give the album a very...
...aggression of TCV’s music does not mean that the album lacks its accessible moments. The album front-loads its two catchiest songs immediately after the opener. “Mind Eraser, No Chaser” features vocals by both Grohl and Homme, although this serves only to reiterate the superiority of the latter.

However, it seems that, despite all the energy spent in event publicity, we put too little thought into the kinds of images and words that we use and how they affect the entire Harvard culture...
