I got No Cities Left after seeing them open for Matthew Good. It's good, but I haven't really got into it yet. The singer is amazing, and We Can Have It is awesome.
Just because I am sexy, naked, a bassist, and sporting a top hat doesn't make me Duncan Coutts!

The Dears are just a rip off of Blur an Pulp.... Absolutely nothing new.

i tremendously disagree. the pulp comparison, i can see perhaps but i really don't get where you are getting the blur thing from.

You disagree? Everytime I heard that one single of the Dears on the radio I thought it was a new Blur single.. took me a few seconds to realise that it wasn't Blur.... hehe
ahh well

Dude even their ads on the radio compare them to blur.... So you can't tell me that they don't sound like blur if even their record label compares them to Blur and Pulp in an ad!

Yeah but The Dears do actually sound like Blur and Pulp.
