Yet it`s one of the dullest things i`ve ever heard, there are already a million bands that sound like this lot , what are they doing to deserve such praise?
Seriously every song to me just sounds like a monotonous drone.The thing just has no life in it.Easily the most over rated album i`ve heard since the first Interpol album.

So what is so great about this record ? Please tell me where the originality & the genius is because I don`t see it. And no 'oh but it`s great' replys either


Thanks.
I'd really be interested to hear what bands you DO like, because so far, you've only posted in threads claiming that you hate the band.
