    I've just heard it the once but it sounds very agreeable. Love the first track.

    Really great, sounds like Paul Noonan had been listening to Joy Division and Talking Heads rather a lot, not a bad thing though!

    I don't have the album but I've heard it a fair few times - was never a fan of Bell X1 before, I'd never really heard their stuff and only knew of them through their affiliations with Damien Rice (he was in the band or something?).
    Anyways I'll probably get moself a copy - I partickly like two of the tracks - I don't know the names. One ends up as a kind singalong at the end and t'other has the line "now I don't believe in any other Jesus"...

    Fantastic album, Rocky and Flame are great (in fact I just spent all day on the video shoot for Flame :p )

    You've gotta love a band that can come up with lyrics like "I don't believe in any old Jesus, if there was a God, then why is my arse the perfect height for kicking!" :D

    I Agree Rocky Took a Lover is a truely fantastic song, i believe it may be Bell x1's "Run"

    why is the singer so up himself?

    He thinks he's awesome. Bet he loves the mirror.

    A little bit of cockiness is no harm in music business (but not to much)...all i care about is the music and hes a hugely talented singer!!

    Absolutely love the album.... Rocky took a Lover is an amazing song and deserves to do really well. I only hope they dont feck it up with a watered down radio edit like they did with eve, the apple of my eye from Music in Mouth. That song should have been their "Run" but all will be right with the world if Rocky takes its place.

    I actually heard the acoustic version of Rocky took a lover on the Ian Dempsey Breakfast Show before I heard the radio version and way preferred the former! I don't think Paul Noonan(if that is his name?) is particularly in love with himself either..not compared with the like of Glen Hansard!
