While the band puts the finishing touches on its forthcoming album, lead single "The Way We Live Now" received 5 out of 5 stars from About.com's Ryan Cooper. "The Way We Live Now" shares its name with the Susan Sontag short story and is an ode to civil rights pioneers from the 1980s. The single includes two other original tracks and three covers; "Blood" by Babes in Toyland, Britney Spears' "Lucky", and Madonna's "Angel", a long-standing favorite of the band. "The Way We Live Now" also received praise from The Deli, while the video for "Lucky" was written up in Huffington Post and the video for "Angel" was premiered by Huffington Post and shared by Out Magazine.
