Anyone like these guys? I bought The Last Broadcast today, and I've listened to it through once... but Words, and There Goes the Fear are fantastic right off...

I've got Lost Souls, not got the Last Broadcast yet.... lost souls is such a nice album, cedar room is probably the best track on it - maybe.

its brit-pop, but they have a lot of experimental stuff in there. its comparable to radiohead at times.

their material is not very electronic. it has the same sort of mood as the early radiohead stuff did.
they are sort of like coldplay too. its decent stuff, very casual listener friendly.

A friend of mine bought a CD by them. I don't remember which one it was, but I do know that one of the singles from it had a video that was played on MTV a few times.
I only liked the instrumentals on it, and that Sub Sub shit they were doing before Doves is fucking horrid.

The Last Broadcast is the best rock-type album of the year! They are quite experimental, it's refreshing to see such an album get to No. 1 over here. Lost Souls isn't so good. The Last Broadcast really surprised me. A lot of people are saying it's the best rock album since OK Computer, but I think it's _better_ than OK Computer.
A bit like Doves' Kid A [except not really as good].

doves are great, they are far more talented than most of the british (for want of a better word) 'indie-pop'
i have their 1st album and plan to buy their new album
one thing i like about them is they take their b-sides seriously, and there's plenty of them
great stuff :)

Better than OK Computer? wwwha, i really love that song satellites though..the gospel-ish ness is much like recent spiritualized..i think i prefer the more sad underlinings of their earlier work though

it's not close to Ok Computer, sorry... it's quite good, but come on, Ok Computer is imo the best rock album ever (just my opinion on that matter), and is one of the best ever without question...

Well, I always found OK Computer overrated. There are a few excellent tracks on it, but any album with a song as drastic as Let Down just isn't one of the greatest records of all time as VH1 and NME oh-so-often tell us.

doctorvee, what do you mean about let down being drastic? i really dig that song, especially the lines "one day i am going to grow wings..a chemical reaction, hysterical and useless.."

I should make clear that I actually really like OK Computer, it's probably in my top 20. But Kid A, Amnesiac and The Last Broadcast are all better, in my opinion...
I take pretty much the same stance on The Bends. Planet Telex and The Bends are genius songs, but as an album, The Bends sort of stumbles all over the place, and it isn't really an album - just twelve tracks. Half of them excellent, half dire.

Ross: I never really liked Let Down. I think it's a bit cheesy really. I probably wouldn't mind if it wasn't for those AWFUL bleeps at the end. I mean, this is Radiohead, not bloody Blake's 7.
I do like the [acoustic?] guitar solo in it, if you could call it a guitar solo. You'll probably know what I mean...
