Art, their first three albums are AMAZING!!!!! Frankly, I've not
been as impressed with the last one but
it still is better than 95% of the swill out there in pop these days.
Listen to the album "Leaders of the Free World"...............just awesome!
To me, they are not unlike the Beatles if the Beatles had been from far
Northern Britain and
had been a little darker and more melancholic. Their productions are
amazing and they take lots
of chances with found sounds and weird production techniques. I think
that their singer also has one
of the most beautiful voices in pop today. He sings BETTER in
concert
than on record if you can believe that.
yours, Rick
