I won't be in a hurry to checkout the new album. I will hear it sometime but I wasn't all that impressed with FWM and I haven't played it for well over a year. I still love the attitude and rawness of their debut and adidasss is right. Bands can certainly explore more musical avenues but the reason why the Moneys work is their Englishness, through the raw working class city sound to the regional accents and the idiosyncratic lyrics. Pairing them with Homme doesn't sound like the best idea. Of course you cannot slate it until you have heard it but it sounds less appealing to me all the time
