This album is just fantastic. I have heard many people don't like it because it's so different from their first album. I agree that it is different.......because it is so much better!
Hold your colour was good but this is leagues ahead of it. There are a few slightly weaker songs but I could listen to "different" (my favourite), "showdown" and "propane nightmares" forever and not get bored of them.
Basically this is my favourite album of the year by far and only something very special will stop it being so at the end of the year.
