I don't listen to these guys very much. Couple decent tracks on the new album, but not wowed by anything.

I am listening to their Reading 2011 show right now though. Strong to quite strong.

if anything, the new cd makes me like angles more..

its not that i hate the new one, i just dont love it.. i could deal with the new 80s type sound if they threw in some old sounding stuff.. and julian should stay away from the falsetto shit, it aint his thing

I haven't dug much of their output since the damn-near-perfect debut, but Tap Out is fantastic.

yeah, but it seemed he went for that awful sound. I saw him in Chile and Argentina and sounded the same.
