    I wanted to listen to the whole album in order. It's a good album and I'm sure it'll be in the rotation.

    I don't recall the last time a band's hit single turned me off so much (what's that annoying overplayed song called again?). It actually made me avoid any more of their music... is the rest of it different from that irritating radio hit?

    that's why I didn't like them. My previous quote about the band is "they should be relevant in March and that's it"

    :think: Maybe I will give them another chance.

    Honestly give them a chance. Yes a few songs are overplayed, but they really do have a lot of depth and some of their songs are the most moving songs I've ever listened to.

    *Edit - you're either thinking of Little Lion Man or The Cave

    Well I bought Babel & tbh was a bit banjoed out before long, it was all a bit deedle-eee-deedleee but well see. I picked up Band of Horses Mirage Rock as well & I dunno that I'm gonna want to thrash any of these like I did Uncle Neil's latest but good to check out new things. :)

    It's a little OCDish maybe, but not nearly as weird as what some other people do over the toilet I bet. :?
