never actually got around to listening to the last one. didn't like what i heard off it enough to sit through the whole thing.

went up to carlingford at the weekend. my brother had the new one on in the car on the way up. i thought it sounded alright. some nice tunes on it. i probably won't be rushing out to buy it but i wouldn't turn it off straight away if i heard it again. i think the vocals sound great on it. some of it's a bit slow moving. it kind of reminds me of joshua tree era u2 in the slower parts for some reason.

my favourite album of theirs is probably the 2nd one. is it aha shake heartbreak?

Was never a fan until.....'Sex On Fire'. It's a brilliant song and one of the best of the year..'Use Somebody' is excellent too, downloaded both tracks from iTunes, haven't bought the full album, have a feeling these are probably the 2 best songs on it.

Crawl and Revelry are pretty good but I think it's missing out on a real go crazy/let loose song that the first 2 albums were full of.
Overall though I do like it and I'd say it's a grower like the last album.

The only thing I like about KOL is Caleb's voice, musically they've done nothing for me since Aha Shake...

Sex on fire is a pretty good tune, but the start of it reminds me of the start of a song by the minutes or new amusement can't think which off the top of my head.

Made you look

i might check out the show in the o2 arena. i don't think it's sold out yet. although that would be more to see what the o2 arena is like than to see KOL. i saw them supportin pixies a few years ago, they didn't really blow me away
