Hey, I thought exactly the same, Frownland ! I`ve only played about 4 tracks so far, but half-way through Ringers in the Fold I realized there was something very familiar about the sound; the somber, repetitive riff with a cello or something moaning away on top.
Glad to see that at least someone is commenting on the album - for myself, I have to do some more listening before I commit myself to an actual vote.

PS. Didn`t like the opening track much, so I hope there aren`t too many others like that; I`d much rather listen to a folky variation of the Velvets.
