If you're expecting an album with songs in the same vein as "we can have it" you'll be getting more than that from this album. It's not the smiths or like anything else I've heard. I've got smiths albums, and I like them, but this music is darker. Sure the singer sounds a little like Morrisey but he also sounds a bit like bowie. It doesn't really matter, he's just got a good voice. This album might be "Weird" to some or whatever but this is the album where "they got it right" if you ask me. I hadn't heard them before this album and I'm really happy with this buy. Expect a traditional rock album but with different emotions. Some songs are orchestral rock clashings, that tragic sound, like in "22: the death of all romance". Others are more brooding and sad, like "we can have it" and "lost in the plot". Some are just good old fashioned rock, like "who are you defenders" and "no cities left" (which has awesome guitar through it!). No, this is not a standard album, you might have to appreciate some originality from these guys. You'll not only get guitar and male singing, you'll get some female singing, and orchestral sounds too, plus more. If you can handle good music check em out.
