...right now:

On sale as of today!!!!!!!!!!!

I like Newsday's Glenn Gamboa description of the album: "the perfect soundtrack for down-but-not-out America, a clear-eyed, often elegant-sounding, road map that notes the struggles, but keeps its focus on making it through - with your sense of humor intact, no less."

More Together Through Life reflections

The Vulture cites "All Good" as the possible source of the album's criticisms (http://nymag.com/daily/enterta...e_new.html), while Slate's John Dickerson singles the final track out for praise (http://www.slate.com/id/2217018/pagenum/all/)

LOL!

Thanks for that Vulture link, April. That's an awesome and hilarious review.

It's funny, Rolling Stone has an add out for the album, where it says: featuring "Life is Hard" and "It's All Good". In my opinion "Life is Hard" is the worst song on the album, and as Vulture notes, "It's All Good" aint all that great either. Yet those are the two they promote in the add! Weird.
