Does anyone here like them. I have been listening to them nonstop of late. Can't wait for their new album, Ten Silver Drops. Im seeing them this March at the Laguerdo Festival. I saw them last August with Kings of Leon and they were incredible.

    They are good. I listened to their album nonstop for about 2 months...then hit the wall with it. either I absorbed everything there was to learn about the album, or I just burned out on 'em.

    Their drummer plays a HUGE kick...looks like a marching drum...lol.

    Did you go to the show at the Tabernacle in Atlanta? I was there too. That was my second time seeing them. It was a cool show they are a good band.

    John Garza does kick a lot of ass on the drums.

    I saw them open for Kings of Leon also, one of the best lineups I've seen. They put on one hell of a light show, and sound amazing.

    Have you guys heard the new single? 'Alone, Jealous, Stoned'
    Are you too good to tango with the poor poor boys?

    I was at one of the KoL stops too... very cool... after TSM and The Helio Sequence, Kings of Leon were a total bore... I left early.

    They just announced the Secret Machines will be opening U2's concerts at Mexico... now, I don't really give a damn to see a U2 concert these days, but now that I knew the Secret Machines will be openin I'd really wish I had a ticket just to see them... even more after all these comments about how good they are live.

    Umm, the stoned part would be part of a perfect weekend. I don't know about the alone and jealous parts. But fuck I've been in that situation many a times. But I fucking love the song. Two thumbs up.

    Dunno, I just heard it on the radio, is a long track, like around 7 minutes, and it gets particularly interesting after a change they do more or less at the middle of the song. Worth looking for it.

    i'm looking forward to the new album...
    alone, jealous and stoned soundtracked january for me... it's cool to have a song that describes your life perfectly - not so cool if it's called "alone, jealous and stoned", i guess :D
    but seriously, i'm wondering how the album will sound like because the single is a departure from their signature sound... it's brave to release a less psychedelic more pop oriented single and then make it 7 minutes long... this song is so catchy...

    The new album, eh, it is not nearly as good as the debut. But After a couple of listens it gets better.

    Icarus, what do you think of it?

    You are correct. Daddy's In The Doldrums is very cool, I can honestly say that.
