yes. Almost despite myself, I liked it. You can't deny their ability to write a tune and deliver it with some enthusiasm. I'm not their biggest fan, but it made me want to buy the lp.

Yes, but I feel a slightly uneasy about those high notes. He seems to struggle a bit

I think they are a very true example of 'build them up to knock them down'. 'Parachutes' was a great album. It wasn't their fault loads of bands copied them - and not very well - Keane, Athlete.

I don't thnink I'd pay to go and see them, but blardy hell, they aren't the worst. They don't deserve the press crucifixtion they get.
