I like new Stars too, I agree that it's not as good as Set Yourself on Fire (I like Heart more too, actually) but it was still good. New The Most Serene Republic was nice as well and I listened to it a lot while I was in army. It was a lot better than their debut album though I'm not sure if I like it more than Phages or not.

you're kidding, Kala fucking ruled GET BANNED FOREVER MEMORIA.

 ​  I meant to say that "Paper Planes" is a really good track.  Her up-tempo tracks sound really obnoxious in that stereotyped non-traditional 'world music' kind of way.  It reminds me of when I was in Jamaica (I think, might've been Mexico) at some crazy bar/restaurant.  The kind where the chick employees are going around giving guys shots and stuff.  It's not bad for a short while but it's pretty headache-inducing.  I could never stand an entire M.I.A. concert.  The Timbaland track that's really good is "Come Around."  "Galang" is also really good but it's not on Kala.

EDIT:  Actually "Galang" is just good.  It's kind of the point right before crossing over into obnoxiousness.
