from the madeloud.com review of the edward sharpe and the magnetic zeroes album:

Make no mistake, though: Edward Sharpe & the Magnificent Zeros are no jam band. Don’t think Phish; instead, imagine what Arcade Fire would sound like if they’d sprouted up in Southern California, hanging out in a sun-baked backyard rather than hunkered down in a chilly old church in Canada.

me: i think you put it better

me: and more succinctly

eric: yeah, maybe “chilly old church” means their butt

eric: and “hunkered down” means they put a stick up in it
