Do they remind anyone else of Echo and the Bunnymen?

Tiny bit, they also remind me of Interpol, very similar but lyrics aren't as good

Same as Claza. I like both! Both quality bands...

Having said that, I don't really know a huge amount of EATB

Cool

Same as them

Echo and the Bunnymen had their own sound for me but vocally McCulloch does sound a wee bit like both, he still sounds good today.

I quite like them - they remind me a bit of Joy Division as well.

Another vote here for sounding like Joy Division. Not that that's a bad thing.

Wouldn't mind seeing them live.

He was good-looking, cheers.

What about Rutger Hauer off of Blade Runner?

You don't think he may be starting to do "text talk"

They're good. Saw them supporting Franz Ferdinand in Cardiff last year.

Cheers

Not really; I know what you mean but Id thought it was down to production rather than 'sound'. Ive tried (Im still trying) with The Editors, but Id sooner lsiten to Kasabian/The Killers/The Arctic Monkeys and a little bit of The Zutons.....
