Sound: Moody and ambient British rock with intriguing arrangements and progressive ambition
Playlist Partners: Odder and grittier than Coldplay or Doves and more organic (i.e. less electronic) than Radiohead, but almost as daring and captivating
Heavy Rotation tracks: “Leaders of the Free World“; “Mexican Standoff“; “Forget Myself”
Medium Rotation tracks: “Picky Bugger“; “My Very Best“; “Station
Approach”
Recommended: To anyone that found their previous albums fascinating, but thought they never quite materialized into a group of great songs. This is that grand, focused effort where it all makes sense.
Grade: A- (Top 20 Albums of 2006 Candidate)
