    Anyone?

    itunes has been pushing it and I bought a couple of songs yesterday and it as enough to draw me back to buy the album this morning. Good consumer that I am.

    I'm enjoy it so far. A little moody perhaps, I have to admit to never having heard of them before so I didnt know what to expect.

    I was a fan of their debut album Exits,

    I missed out on the Union album but managed to get it for £2 in Hmv in the UK today while I was getting the new one!

    £9.99 for a nicely packaged album, complete with all the lyrics and a bonus disc with 4 tracks on it,

    Have only listened twice through so far, and I am really enjoying it,

    Stand out track for me is "the runner", am loving that tune,

    Ethan Jones produced this one and you can tell! the sound is fantastic.

    Must get their other stuff

    Love Exits as an album but listened to it a bit too much and inevitably ended up getting a bit sick of it, must give it a listen again I'm sure I'll fall back in love with it :)

    Looks like "exits" should be next on my list.

    I bought Exits yesterday.

    In the space of a week I've gone from Never-heard-of-them to Big Fan.

    Yeh, same here. Haven't heard of these guys before until I read this thread. Really enjoying the new album and 'No Harm' is a great opening track. The Runner is a cracking one as well.

    Have to check out the earlier albums now.

    Exits - I love it. I've been playing it more than cold still.

    I must get Union next.

    I had heard one or 2 songs a few years ago but kinda forgot about them til I watched the movie "Going the distance" last night and they feature in it and it re-ignited my interest and have to say am falling head over heels with them.

    Gutted they arent playing in Ireland this time and wish could afford to head to Edinburgh or England to see them.

    I stumbled upon them by chance randomly browsing youtube a few years back. I was pleasantly surprised to find that they had already released two albums and that almost all of the songs on both Exits and Union were really good.

    Cold Still is not as good as the first two albums but it is still a decent one.

    Saw them live a few months back in Amsterdam. Was in a small venue maybe 600 people tops. They put on a great live show. Would love to see them again some time.
