I missed his earlier tour but I like the new album a lot. I'm seriously considering seeing him live at Wireless in London this year (doing the Saturday gig with Daft Punk).

The lyrical content is anything but spunky, and so is the deliverance. Are you sure you're listening to the right album?

I'd have to disagree with you adidasss.

I would say that the lyrical content is, indeed, spunky and also quite intelligent.

I don't think it's right for people to expect a band to always remain the same.

Evolution is a natural process.

I think they are great. All My Friends is the best song so far this year.

i agree.

it's very reminiscent of something, but i can't quite put my finger on it.

It is basically emotional Murphy, Darklands era Jesus and Mary Chain guitar and a piano.

anyone hear the franz ferdinand cover of all my friends? it's on the lcd myspace page for reference's sake.

Saw James Murphy DJ at Fabric in London.... Wicked!

The John Cale cover is great.

didnt like it at first but its growing on me big time. enjoying a decent amount of the tracks, but i still think they are a little overrated.
