Not strong enough for my top 5 but miles better that Paper Monsters, particularly like, Saw Something, Kingdon, Insoluble (pure DM in it's construction), Endless and Down.

Is he touring this album ?

I actually was a bit disappointed when I first heard it, but on a 2nd listen I think it's just superb, much better than paper monsters

No he's not touring, back in the studio with Mode this year with a new release and tour next year

Radiohead - In Rainbows
Foo Fighters - Echoes, Silence, Patience and Grace
Interpol - Our Love to Admire
Editors- An End Has A Start (also best gig of the year for me, small pre-album launch night at the Parr Hall in Warrington. We spent the entire night trying not to stand on Edith Bowman's toes while jumping around like an idiot)
Biffy Clyro - Puzzle

Great news, I spent Sunday Morning taking the Chrimbo stuff down with the 5.1 cranked right up listening to and ocassionally watching Touring the Angel, nearly 2 years already since they reopened Wembley Arena, best gig they've ever done IMHO. There's always a worry with each album it's potentially the last, certainly thought that after Exciter.
