So, anyone heard it yet?  I have it sat on my desk, sadly I cant listen to it yet as my dvd drive is otherwise engaged.  Ive heard it said that this album has caused the arcade fires funeral to hold the title of best album of 2007 for only a month.  This can only be a good thing.  Woo!  Long hair!  Beards!

KOL are local boys around here. They rocketh mightily. Different cuppa than AF. Good summer music!

Been doing a lot of driving to the office with this playing in the  last couple of weeks.

Good record, kinda a grower I think. Probably prefer it to the second album though.

I loved the second album, I thought it topped the first no probem.  Bit of musical substance to go with the charming sons-of-preacher-untouched-by-mainstream-hackery rhetoric.

Its a good album but Im not sure if its as good as the first two yet. Ive only listened to it a couple of times so far.


I have tickets to see them this month :D and then again at LEEDS Festival :nana:

Theyre pretty good live, Ive seen them a couple of times.

Still cant make my mind up on this album yet.  Few good tracks but I dont think its an ASH.

This band are so under-rated - They really deserve alot more attention.

Ive not really listened to the new album enough yet but the first two are amazing and the two times ive watched them live they put on a brilliant show.

dont tell my ex cos i always slated them to her, but im getting into KOL massively. on call is an awesome track and the rest of the album is top drawer stuff.

This album is growing mightily on me. I tried to listen to some Decemberists afterwards and had to turn it off cause they sounded like a bunch of Victorian pussies in comparison. :lol:

Deaths Head

I really enjoyed that album from 2005 since it was what I listened to on the way to work.  It was one of the reasons for not doing a U-turn and going home.  That would have been the sensible option :(
