I did a search and didn't really see a topic about this band. Anyway, i got their new album - "Two Thousand" and think its pretty damn GREAT. If you are into good melodies and harmonies - power pop rock - i highly suggest you check them out. i think they are on the same label as the walkmen.

PM ME if you want the album.

I hope this is more like One Time Bells than Trial of the Century. I absolutely adore the former.

I actually really grew to like Trial, though I was a bit bored by it at first.

Get One Time Bells, then, and report back.

i saw them last weekend and they seemed to play a lot of new material - all of which was alright, nothing blew me away. unfortunately, they didn't make room for their best song, so i walked away a little disappointed.

check out the trial of the century. i dig that album a lot. best track imo is "you could not decide" and "one more time."

What, I've talked about the record plenty here before. I don't feel the need to go into much detail in a thread about their new one.

"one more time" on trial of the century. at least, that's the one that strikes me as their pinnacle so far.

If your going to take the piss out of my 'insight' then at least make sure you have said something insightful yourself.

I'm glad you guys like them. For me they are just one of the thousands of average indie bands that i am so sick off.

Yes Timis i like The Vines, i certainly do not think the album will make my top 100 and i would not go to see them. Shameful hey?

What and waste my efforts on you? I really can think of a lot of better uses for my time. I'm not trying to be an ass here (honest) - you seem pretty set in your opinion and what's more, antagonistic about it, such that you come into a thread about hearing the new album (presumably full of fans?) and take the piss. Why would I bother writing out something to try and win you over? It's a waste of time.

But hey, if ya come correct and be less rude next time around, maybe I'll more inclined towards insightful discussion.

What are you talking about. I give my opinion and it differs from yours so you try and clown by playing your insight card. The only antagonistic fucker is you sweetheart. Win me over? Can you not state your opinion on here. What shall i say? I am awfully sorry fellas but i don't think these are a very good band. I would still get some wise ass crack back.
