    Haven't heard much talk of this album round these parts. Awesome from start to finish and its a double album. They often seem to get overlooked as I'm not sure they're "down with the kids" (as in conventionally cool, not as in conventionally pedophiles). Anyone heard it? Thoughts??

    it's a good album, not as good as their previous but i'm just happy they came back off that indefinite hiatus.

    they've also played here twice in the last year both times i missed them :(

    Yeah, such a great record which varies so much in style from track to track but still sounds cohesive as an album. One of my favourite albums released this year by a long shot. I'm also raging I missed their gig back in September, will keep a closer eye on thier touring schedule on myspace from now on.

    Shame you guys missed 'em. Saw them at EP and Cyprus Avenue. Cyprus Avenue was amazing (sound was a bit suspect at EP as can often be the case at festivals). Be sure to catch em if ye can in future. Amazing musicians, so so tight.

    Yeah, it's a really strong album. Lovely Zeppelin, CSN, Wishbone Ash influences among many others. Loads of clever production. And it's long, but never overstays it's welcome. It's regularly on in the car.

    I felt like starting a thread on this album a few times, but I could never think of any real discussion to have, rather than to say that I love it.
    So there :p
