Bought the album the other day, and have to say that it's a fantastically laid back album. Perfect for the summer. A touch country in places, but hey, it makes a refreshing change from 'urban' artists being rammed down your throat.

Anyone else got it?

Like it?

Ahhh, I see what you mean. What really annoyed me was when Big Brovaz(??!) scored a no.1 single. I wouldn't have minded too much but the song was shockingly poor and the rapping isn't even worth talking about. Meanwhile, those two new boy bands Triple 8 and D-Side have taken the urban approach to shift more units - I guess it is getting rammed down people's necks.

I love Big Sur, One Horse Town and Santa Cruz. The three best songs by them. Hoho.

They are amazing, saw them on at the NME awards tour earlier this year and they were fantastic.

And RBS, you're probably thinking of Santa Cruz.

Funny thing though, when I heard them on Radio 2 I was absolutely convinced the lead singer was a women. He sounded like when when singing AND speaking. Wasn't till I saw them at Glastonbury that I found out he's a bloke :-D

Heard them on Radio 2 a while ago playing a few songs live. I really like Big Sur and One Horse Town. And another one I can't remember the name of. Dammit I've got lots of albums to get. Unfortuneately for Thrills though, Grandaddy take precedence on my To Get List.

And Shaneo, you rape donkeys :-P
