Spaceman is total s
hit, it's just dance pop at best. The best thing they've done is the single they released last Christmas:

It's a matter of being f
ucking sell outs. You can tell that the band has more potential just from songs like Tranquilize (with Lou Reed), Under The Gun, The Ballad Of Michael Valentine, Glamorous Indie Rock And Roll, All These Things That I've Done, Smile Like You Mean It, and Andy, You're A Star.
Hot Fuss wasn't a god send but it left room to be more then a sell out pop band, unfortunately the band immediately released two albums of sparse good songs and filler, one decent single, and then just plain out become synthesized dance pop with this latest installment. They obviously could do better then this crap, so I believe it is effort... effort or money, who knows. Maybe even both, s
hit band though.
