They did say creepy. I think High Road is the 'Curl of the Burl' of the new album. Definitely most similar to Blood Mountain but then again has something new which is a progression from all their other stuff. The riff is insane, very unique.
I'm not sure I should be recommending this to a dysthymic person, but check out "My Father Will Guide me up a Rope to the Sky". The entire album is great.
