I haven't heard anything from them yet, but they're pretty well hyped. Do you reckon I would like it?

"so here we are" is part of a minority of slower songs

It's Ace!! Anyone else think Luno sounds like Helicopter? it does a little, now that you come to mention it... very similar guitar line. must we why it hasn't stuck out quite so much as some of the others... and HOW good is "like eating glass"? ;D

'Like Eating Glass' is fantastic, some great drumming on there, as there is on some of the other tracks.

Got this yesterday, and really like it. This Modern Love & Plans stand out most for me so far.

And btw, I bought the album yesterday. yay! ;D after a few more listens... god, i love pretty much ALL of the first 8... it tails off a little towards the end, but "compliments" is a masterful closer... very moving.

Aye - this album is great! Seen them twice already as well, and after one show (in Reading) was at a local drinking beers with Kele and he was a really sound guy.
Anyone have - or know someone who has the release with the 3 bonus tracks? I'm probably going to have to import it from Japan but trying to avoid it. The extra tracks are:
14. So Here We Are ( Four Tet Remix) 15. Plans ( Mogwai Remix) 16. Pioneers (M83 Remix)
Side note - they are my 'band of the week' on my radio station...
