    Didn't one of them leave the band?

    Enjoyed the album when it came out first, but didn't feel like it had a lot of substance to it. Grew tired of it relatively quickly. Also I thought the gig in the Olympia was a bit bland.

    It will be interesting to see where they go with the new album.

    And added a gig in the 02. Good luck selling that out lads.

    Would I be safe in assuming they'll do a European tour too? Loved an Awesome Wave, and really enjoyed seeing them live too. Hope the second album can live up to the first.

    Really liked the first one too, one of the best British albums released in the last few years, you could tell there was a lot of effort put into it and I can still listen to it. Hopefully they can follow it up.

    I only got into them last year but the band really grew on me. Bought a ticket for the concert in September this morning, so hopefully it will be good.

    I'm disappointed with what I've heard from the new album so far. An awesome wave was my fav album last year, seen them live twice and they were amazing. Had high hopes :(

    They put this on youtube yesterday. I like it.

    Starting to notice the lyrics now, a bit odd: "i want to turn you inside out and lick you like a crisp packet" :confused:

    new album is really great. Warmer and more experimental than the last one, definitely not as immediate as it seems to sink in over more listens.
