I can honestly say that they are my in my top 5 bands of all time.. cant get over how good each and every one of they'r albums where. It inspires me everytime i listen!

If ya are New to the band start at the beginning .. go to a deadly free website called we7.com .. theyer whole back catalog is on there..

My personal fav album is Everyone who pretended to like me is gone... STUNNING..

saw them in the button factory a while back and as a band they blew me away.. best male voice ive ever heard live

Saw them in New York earlier this year. they were good live but I didn't know most of the songs and it wasn't a lively set and we left before the encore (the beer in the venue was too expensive anyway).
I'll check them out again at EP.

One of my favourite bands of all time!

Was a tad disappointed with "A Hundred Miles Off" at the time TBH and thought they had lost some of the beauty of "Everyone Who Pretended......" and "Bows & Arrows" but then they come along with "You & Me", what an album!

Any rumors of them playing at EP this year? I think there in europe around the same time.
Cant get enough of them, such an under rated band.
Seen them twice here at EP and in the tripod.

They are. Must say Ive found the new album disappointing from what Ive listened to it, especially after the excellent last one You and Me. They do seem to be very erratic tho, their other albums had songs that were either brilliant but then other sutff on there you wouldnt really be bothered with.

Thats the business cant wait for EP now icing on the cake for me,
Everyone who pretended to like me is my favorite would,
Lisbon isnt too bad but I like their darker songs like "rue the day" "wake up"
"im never bored" cant get enough of it.

Exactly how i feel about them,

The Rat for me is an amazing song, I love it and never grow tired of it.
