They've never been a band I've paid much attention to.
In fact, no. I haven't paid any attention to them to be honest.
But in October, when I was in Portugal listening to Vive Albuifeira FM Radio (I remember the name so well, as it was announced every 5 seconds, and the bloke said "Albufeira" funny), and a song came on (as they do).
I liked it. I liked it a lot. Didn't have a clue who it was by - they never said.
But I literally found out 15 minutes ago during the ad for their album - "Silence is Easy", which coincidentally is the song I had heard.
Annnnnywayyyyy, I just heard "Four to the Floor" on the tele a minute ago (which I'd heard a tiny amount of before, and some from, again, the album advert) - and it's excellent.
A good solid mix of instruments. Which is what I like.
So really, yes. I'm impressed. All in the last 20 minutes. By a band whose name had put me off for a while, even though I had no idea as to their genre of music.
Ah well. I really am considering buying their album.

Heartbreaker? Pfft.
I really like Starsailor, especially Born Again. When I first heard Silence is Easy (as in the song itself) I didn't think too much of it, but for some reason, I really liked it when I heard it louder. And I've always liked good souls.
And Heartbreaker and Trampled Underfoot are the lords of Zeppelin songs.

They're album is pretty decent.
Some of the lyrics are pretty cheesy, but some others are fantastical.
And Shark Food only has 4 lines, repeated over and over. Which is fine until you actually realise, then it's pretty annoying.
Telling Them is lovely, and Bring My Love is most amazing - reminds me a bit of the Coral for some reason.

I thought they were from Wigan? I'm fairly close to both, I suppose.

Ok, I'm done basking in their reflected glory now.

Don't worry, Stairway rarely comes onto the radio in England. If it does, I'll just go to the bathroom.
