So I bought:
1. Zutons
2. Snow Patrol
3. Razorlight
4. Jet
A few days ago.
1. Mmmm ... yummy. Don't think much of it will get on my MP3 player, but (like now) I need a crazy pick-up. Fantastic for that - shame all best songs are the singles, no hidden gems so to speak.
2. Meh. I can't really see what all the fuss is about. Yeah, some good choons - but some occasionally terrible lyrics. And, given the choice, I think there's always going to be something else I'd rather listen to.
3. Wooo. Brilliant. At first only 2 songs (Golden Touch and In The City) really stood out, but now I love every one on there. In The City is my new favourite song evAr.
4. Great, yes - but almost all-too-familiar. Riffs nicked from everywhere, so even though the choons are good, it's hard to like them too much. Then along comes Lazy Gun and Sgt. Major right near the end, which are bloody fantastic.
So there you go.

Snow Patrol's 2nd album, Songs for Polarbears, was brilliant. I like Final Straw just as well, it's just that hardly anyone has heard Songs for Polarbears.

Yeah, I think I need to listen through it again, not sure I was properly concentrating on it for the first listen.
Also got the Franz Ferdinand album earlier in the week, which despite me having heard quite a few of the songs on there quite a bit prior to buying it, I still love.

Razor Light are the BEST. I prefer Razorlight, though.
And Dalston is, jim-hat says, about the Pete of Doherty.

The Razor Light album is fab. Dalston is one of my faves on it.
Anyway, new Ian Brown album out either already or soon. That's a definite I think.
Sort of, but I like it damn it.
Snow Patrol used to be pretty decent student-ish rock and pop...then they became Coldplay.
Snow Patrol are pretty damn good, I bought their newest album. Haven't the faintest what it's called, but I enjoy listening to it.
I am better than all of you.
The Zutons album des indeed rule.
I am off to see them in a few weeks
