DaveyBoy, I should check this out... Maybe it'll penetrate my AOTY list. I listened to SowingSeason on Yellowcard, and they're steadily climbing the ranks as we speak

This is absolutely amazing!



Also, surprised at the lack of Florence in the 'recced by reviewer' section.

LG, this is the only non-metal album on my list.



Definitely give it a go OS94. I wouldn't say it's the most immediate album going around, but the year still has 6 weeks to run.



Interesting comparison clercqie. I wouldn't say their voices are similar, but I guess the main reason why I excluded Flo was that I think The Jezabels have much more of a rock element about them.

I agree their voices don't sound all that similar, but they both know how to use their vocal range to the fullest extent and the epic and sometimes bombastic feel on this album reminds me of Florence and The Machine...



Although I like this infinitely better ;)

Yeah, I can see where you get the vibe from re: "epic and sometimes bombastic feel". The few songs that use strings on this could be compared.

Should you get on Southampton's band-wagon before it's too late? Yes.

Should you make Mertesacher your EPL Fantasy League Captain this weekend? Yes.

Should you listen to this album? Yes. In fact, I think you might really like it Rosco.

Just realised how mad you went on the recommended by reviewer here. Love it!

Also, just heard Endless Summer. I'm in the process of checking out the other recommended tracks. Gotta say I like what I hear so far.

Plus why would you make anyone but van Persie captain right now? You're so silly.

Thought you'd at least like the better tracks here.



What's that "ping" sound I can hear coming. Is that RVP's hammy?
