'Don't Go Making Plans' is their first new music in over a decade and taken from their forthcoming EP of the same name.



They were one of my absolute favourite bands back in the day, and their first two albums still rank very highly for me.

It's decent!

I don't think I've (knowingly) ever heard any of their other music... I'll have to change that.

Pretty good!

I did love the first album, quite liked the second but never got round to hearing the third.

The first album was great... (in fact one I could listen to start to finish and not skip etc) the second not so much.

The only latter song which i've loved is Fire in the House which is probably my favourite song of their's now biggrin.gif

This doesn't sound too bad on first listen.

They were huge for an era or so on R1!

Same, but I loved the second just as much. For me, it was the third album which was a bit of a drop off in quality.

I was totally obsessed with them! Their debut album is superb. They were right at the start of the mid-late indie train vibe, but they hit the culture of the time perfectly. A really good album. Definitely one of the better albums of that time. I actually really enjoyed their sophomore effort at the time, I listened to it again a few years ago and it hadn’t aged very well. The label/themselves handled that era pretty badly with the ‘No Cover Art’ piece. Never actually got round to listening to their third album as I kind of grew out of them, but Stars of CCTV is a really good listen, like others say, not sure there’s a bad track.

I might actually give the third album a curiosity listen, I think I quite liked the single but this was like a generation ago now.

Still nothing amazing but still good to have them back around, if that makes sense.
