anybody heard of these guys? they're pretty well known over here. They've just released their third album, and it's proving pretty good sofar (having my first listen as i type!) anywho's, if you like the idea of being somewhere inbetween coldplay, echo and the bunnymen and radiohead, I'd suggest you give them a try

currently giving it a peek at the xfm listening post. it's pretty good, not too distracting, but upbeat enough to keep you awake.
edit: oooo, i really like the storm. the harmonica bit is fantastic, makes me think of supertramp a bit.

their first album is probably the best one, but the new one is definately better than the second! if you ever get the chance, look up sea song, it's just gorgeous...

hmmm, I bought 'the last broadcast' today, but I haven't listened yet. looks like that might be the 'not-so-good' second one, then? I just grabbed the cheapest one. heh!

it's not without it's moments.... words is a great song, and there goes the fear and pounding were great singles... it's just a bit more 'stadium' than the other 2,that's all... caught by the river is a good rousing anthem too...

ok, finally listening to it now... first impression is it reminds me of the stone roses (whom I liked).
