Anybody else here heard them?

Anybody else like them?

I bought the album and its one of the best i've heard in a while... I can't wait to see them at Leeds Festival!

Check out the singles Take Me Out & The Dark Of The Matinee.

And just to add fuel to the fire, Spork thinks Travis are the best thing from Scotland... Detty thinks Snow Patrol are... i'm gonna stand by these guys for the title. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/tongue.gif]

I don't think Snow Patrol are the best thing from Scotland... I just think they're far superior to Travis.
Detty. Professional Expert.

I liked take me out it was funky from start to end ... the video clip ain't bad either although sadly no scantly-clad females dancing.

I got the album for my older brother for his birthday (which means I get a copy!)
I haven't actually listened to it much yet though. I really like Take Me Out.

How bizzare... The first minute of Take Me Out might as well be a Strokes cover, then it changes to an early-80s dance rhythm for the chorus... Crazy.

The best thing to come out of Scotland is, and always will be, I'm gonna be (500 Miles) by The Proclaimers. Nuff said [http://forums.massassi.net/html/wink.gif]

The huge change in Take Me Out is what I love about it. After the change it reminds me a lot of No New Tale to Tell by Love and Rockets.

Bump... These guys rock [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif]

Album is not without it's flaws and they're definitely a live band, but it's hella fun to listen to.

They're really funky. Check out The Dark of the Matinee and Auf Achse if Take Me Out appealed to you.
