c'mon Johnny Flynn! Amazing album, amazing live band. Rather him that some melody-less generic crap like The Ting Tings, or some other overrated jizz like The Wombats or Foals. Lets give it to a genuine artist with enduring songs and fantastic all round musicianship, not a band who just jump on the bandwagon and have there astonishingly pedestrian music lauded by the shallow and pretentious critics of such websites such as Pitchfork and Drowned In Sound, and even this very site. The Flynn album is a fantastic folk album that has something for everyone whilst maintaining a strong identity of its own. plus, the bloke plays 6 bloody instruments on this album. let the angry responses begin! xxx
