After reading this and hearing a couple tracks off their myspace I feel like I'll really like this band; should I start with this or their first one Davey?

Also, something about the video for This Orient reminded me strongly of this:

"Midnight Organ Fight" Ok, thought you may have meant the newie coz what I have been reading suggests that is more accessible than 'MOF'.



"This is interesting. I actually have no idea what to rate it... gotta adapt to the guys voice" Understandable. Many of the vocalists I now consider some of my faves, initially rubbed me the wrong way.



"Look at all you fucking losers acting like you've never heard a Scottish accent before" We've all heard them. It's understanding the thicker ones that is the problem. There have been a few after-match football conferences where the manager could have been talking about space travel for all I know.



"After reading this and hearing a couple tracks off their myspace I feel like I'll really like this band; should I start with this or their first one Davey?" It's really your call Brah, coz the albums are rather different. If you like Bloc Party & Franz Ferdinand, give their debut a listen. I'd still probably lean that way, just because it will put this album so much in context with their change of sound.

And yeah, those videos are fairly similar. Love that song (which so many hated).

Go for Antidotes first, it's not as good but it's still great.

"yooo got the bloooooood" ... on your hands, I think it's my own.



Rosco doesn't like that song. I think he said it was "garbage" or something like that.



"I used to be into these guys but kinda quit listening to them. maybe ill start up again if this album is this good." Yeah, at least give it a few listens. It's definitely got more lasting value than their early stuff, even if it's not as catchy.

So, so, so, so untrue. Why it's the 9th best track on the album and a solid 4.5.

Yeah, mutatedfreek is Rosco.



So, you're saying it's the 3rd worst song here... Really, the 2nd worst, since a sub one minute interlude exists?



You're a hard man to please Coltrane.

It's still a brilliant track though. I wouldn't have 5'd the album if i didn't like it all.

"i like this" Thought you might Robin. In fact, I would have thought it'd be more than "like".
