I heard the catchy ass single (supermassive black hole) and bought the album.....mistake cause that's one of the only songs I like. Everything else is too mopey dopey and they sing a little too, um.....Queen-ish

sometimes.

Second half of Knights and a lot of the guitar work overall is solid. Maybe it'll grow. I'm leaning towards no at this point. Damn.

this band is completly ridiculous.

faux-operatic nonsense that drowns in its own sense of limpid tragedy

Every band is characterized by their front man. That's how they sound like Radiohead. Still like 'em though. Hope to catch them in Phoenix, but that will be during finals week, so it's iffy.

Front PERSON, pardon me. Gwen of No Doubt came to mind.

now had a chance off a good listen to the album. Cracking stuff, a little bit of everything, a bit of pop, a bit of Depeche Mode, a bit of Keane

and a lot of Queen. A good allround rock/pop album and not over produced too much either (apart from the Queen vox). Going to see them in Manchester in November....should be good.

if you're there on the 10th i might see you there! (standing of course!)

But they are a fantastic band, with a fantastic new album.

Alas, I'll be sitting, the missus has dodgy knees!

bought the album last Tues (day it came out). I like it but have only listened to it a few time. will see them live tomorrow night in SF (starting their tour here). only seen 'em once live, at Coachella when it was hot as hell in the late afternoon. too hot to enjoy the show. looking forward to tomorrow night.
