Yeah I listened to their last album on Spotify, it seemed more poppy than 'So Jealous' but good nonetheless.

What about 'The Con'? Is that any good? It sounds like they were both going through a hard time when it was written.

The Con is good enough, it's a bit inconsistent though. On some of the songs it sounds like they were trying to experiment a bit but not quite succeeding. But it's definitely worth getting for 'Back In Your Head' and the title track. Sainthood is a bit poppier alright but it's good pop, it's definitely worth checking out.

'The Con' definitely has it's highlights but I don't really think it's on par with a lot of their other album.

Which one would you say is their best out of Under Feet Like Ours (1999), This Business of Art (2000) and If It Was You (2002)?

Out of those 3 it has to be If It Was you, they started to find their sound on that album and 'Monday Monday Monday' is a great tune. A lot of the songs on their first album were re-recorded for their second and their vocal style was a bit different but they're both good albums.

I agree, If It Was You is my second favourite album of theirs after Sainthood.

I agree. So Jealous is a great album. I keep meaning to try more of their albums.
