Excellent. I like pretty much everything they’ve done. I remember seeing them supporting Spineshank in September 2001. I couldn’t make out any of it, but it looked impressive. I saw them a number of times after that, but not since 2006. tickets to their farewell gig in 2007 had been oversold, so i was forced to take a refund and circumstances including most recently, the cancellation of Hevy Fest last year have conspired against me seeing them since reforming.
I think the first album came out on the same day as the second Elbow album, my purchase of both seemed to raise a slight eyebrow from the person at HMV. I think i am in the “prefer Death of a Dead Day” crew, although both are decent in different ways.
I only bought DoaDD a few years back, second hand, having stolen it back in the day. clearly someone hadn’t been as impressed with their signed poster.
