Well, what a big let down I think this is. Compared to Hot Fuss, this is just argh!!! Really thought that the new single was cool, but that’s the best thing by miles on the album.
Anyone else heard it yet??

I didn‘t know they were out with a new album. I‘ll have to check it out.

The songs that i’ve heard on the radio i quite like, Mr Brightside, When you were young, Somebody Told Me. Don’t know if i’d buy the album though.

Rob, those songs you mentioned are from the last album. Not the one they just released.
My copy just arrived in the post the other day, and i havent listened to it yet, so i cant comment. I did love the first album though so i am hoping i do like it, even though i have heard mixed reactions to it so far. I hope they arent going to turn into another ’Keane’ for me, whose first album I loved, but the follow up has only been in my cd player once or twice

To be fair - it’s growing on me. I’ve been forcing myself to listen to it, and it’s getting easier!! lol

I really like this album, especially the single and the song “For Reasons Uknown”....awesome!

I actually like this CD over the first one. ’WYWY’ stands out the most right now (since it’s on the radio all the time) but the whole CD is great.

Still havent managed to give the album a listen yet. Ive been away since last Thursday and am also in the process of moving house.....Needless to say that I remembered about it (along with the Scissor Sisters album), but I have no idea where I have put them, so it will have to wait.

I actually like it now. It’s a grower really...

Yeah, Ive never really got into the album to be honest, but thats probably because I havent listened to it enought yet. I’ve only listened to it a few times. But I LOVE ’Bones’ . Its been playing on the radio a lot so that song really has had time to grow on me. I should really give the whole album another chance

Give it another chance Neil. You’ll like it I think :-)
