shame, I liked their last 2 records and I thought they were doing alright - their last album reached no. 1 in the UK, but maybe that doesn't indicate any real financial success these days.

Sad to hear this as well, seen them a good few times and enjoyed most of their music. Have some particularly good memories listening to 'Wall of Arms' in the summer of 2009. Saw them live on holidays in NY that year and they were excellent.
