    Anyone pick this up? Really liking it I have to say. Now if you haven't found a glimmer in anything they've put out over the last 2 releases this album is unlikely to suddenly appeal.

    Found most tracks were growers after the few spins only track not keen about is "True Blue Kid" but overall the album is packed with plenty of catchy vocal lines and guitar melodies. Looking forward to catching them in the Academy in around 3 weeks time.

    Upcoming Tour (w/Gun,The Amorettes)
    Sat- March 4th - Dublin - Academy
    Sun- March 5th - Belfast - Limelight

    Felt similar after first listen but now can say I'd actually prefer this to the Killer Instinct.

    I like it .... solid album throughout. Enjoy the last few songs (Ticket and Letting Go and Fade) as much as the title track and the earlier ones released as promos. Not sure if this is a good thing. Lyrics and Ricky's delivery can be a bit tired ( 'Regular GI Joeeeeee') but overall its a strong album.

    Ticket bought for Dublin.

    Like all three albums, each has improved on the previous. I think this may be the breakthrough. Really looking forward to Dublin gig and seeing them as headliners. Really good live band. Damon Johnson just gets better and better.
