A lot. I too've had the album for some weeks but hadn't slotted it into any playlists - not because of me being undecided on it, but because I was waiting to put it with music it would be more comfortable with. It has a lot of what is now conventional indie fair (instrumentation-wise, dis-jointed voices/harmonies/singing) but I like their arrangements & I think it is a bloody good album. There're a few, um, dodgy lyrics, & there's the odd meander into fluffy/light areas, but overall it's an inoffensive, charming effort & we'll be playing them lots in weeks to come. This, I like.
