Turin Brakes - Ether Song

Another superb album from Turin Brakes. Every track crackles with emotion and you sense a real evolution in their song writing. Get the one with the bonus disk if you can as the tracks on there are a little bit special

Got bored listening to the Last album, just heard so much music of a similar nature, just not very memorable.

Unlike the White Stripes, Elephant (apologies SG, just couldnt resist )

If you didn't like the last one, then it's safe to say you definitely won't like this one mate.

It's a good album alright, especially track 3 but i can understand what Karkus is saying there's no hook there.
the singer has a very unusual voice, he sounds a little bit demented at times.
