It was just about a year ago that we had Andrew WK run around CMJ as our expert party correspondent.

Photo via Saddle CreekThere's long-awaited, and then there's long-awaited. And then there's Some Are Lakes from Land Of Talk . Ever since first discovering the Montreal trio way back in June of 2006 and subsequently playing their debut mini-album Applause Cheer Boo Hiss pretty much to death, I've been waiting for the follow-up. And waiting. And waiting. But thanks to the nature of buzz...
