The skinny:

It’s possible that over the past several weeks you’ve noticed the reviews slow to a trickle around these parts. We had our reasons! Cookies weren’t involved! Okay, maybe they were! All of us at Tripwire HQ are pleased to introduce to you today a new chapter in our “take” on music criticism—by handing over the keys. Starting this week and every Tuesday hereafter, we’ll be posting a full album stream through our friends over at LaLa. What we’d like you to do is lend us your brainwaves and tweet whatever crosses your mind while listening. Maybe there’s a riff you can’t get out of your head. A lyric? A moment? An image? If you’re feeling ambitious, spend your 124 characters reviewing the record as a whole. Just toss those tweets over to us at @thetripwire and by the end of the week, we’ll cobble together and share the beautiful mess of a madlib it creates. Or, if you’re a complete Luddite/TwitterHater, you can just leave a review in the comments section. We’re flexible. You’re the boss now.

This week we’d like to know how you feel about Creed’s new reunion album Full Circle. Remember these dudes? They were the Twitter of post-grunge bands! Ten years later, people seem to be coming to the band’s defense and to be honest, the guitar work on “Higher” and “My Sacrifice” wasn’t/isn’t that bad at all. It was actually kinda good. But what do you think? Do you still hate this band? Do you still love them? Have you switched sides? Do you care? Tweet us praise and tweet us bile.

First, a small game plan reminder for newcomers or stragglers:

This week’s album up for review is Built to Spill’s There Is No Enemy, the Boise outfit’s seventh and we think, finest this decade.

This week’s album is Unmap, full-length debut from Volcano Choir, a gnarly new collaboration between Justin Vernon of Bon Iver and Collection of Colonies of Bees.
