doesent seem anything special at all

jej_knowles · 10 Feb 2010 at 18:38

guess it depends on what your taste in music is!
I cant be alone with this one....

They sound alright... not particularly dancey though, I must admit.

Actually rather good. I really like the second one, I Won't Kneel - very 80's.

I might have to pick this album up.

Nothing on their older stuff, tbh it sounds like generic pap.

Bring back the eighties i say !
