Anyone here a fan of WAS?

I have been looking forward to this album for a long time. Mine has just turned up. Got it for £7.99 from a well known e-media site.

Will write a full report later. I really hope this album will grow on me as much as 'With Love and Squalor' did. 'Crap Attack' was a bit of an odd release for a band with only one album out, and i didn't like all of the tracks.

I have unfortunately only seen them live once so far, but hoping to see them a few times this year. Along with Arcade Fire they are without a doubt my favourite band by far.

With Love and Squalor is one of my highest played albums, some seriously catchy stuff on there, hope this lives up to it, I'll be getting it this week sometime. We Are Scientists are awesome

Damn right. 'It's a Hit' is my favourite. Superb song which hasn't got bored despite the amount of times i have played it.

Have very recently got into them; My gf is a big fan, will check out the new album and let you know what i think

Do it, she will give you much loving if you buy her this album if she hasn't already got it.

With Love and Squalor grew on me an awful lot. I liked it at first, but it grew on me more and more. i think this new one will do the same and i will try to go and see them soon.

I've listened to it twice now and they are already growing on me. I will do a nice little review on each track soon, and post it here. I have to remember how i hated Bloc Party's most recent album at first, it took months of trying and trying it before i learnt to love it. Lost there original one too so i must grab that again as it is dirt cheap.

Got Pete and The Pirates and The Strokes - Room on fire album too. The Strokes and The Editors are my current favourites.
