Finally heard The Killers album today, they’re alright; sound a bit too like The Smiths in places. Also got Dresden Dolls, am impressed. And I like Franz Ferdinand :p

Agree with Pogue Mahone and Dermot.
But also agree with Franz Ferdinand.
A Ferdinand is worth… etc…

I got The Killers album, I thought it was well overrated. There are only a few good tracks on there. To be fair I only got it ‘cos I heard they sounded like the Smiths, and I was disappointed because The Killers are mostly quite cheerful.

Slow year because only those typical “The” bands were good enough to be called good newcomers.

Not really - in most cases they are very ironic, not really miserable at all…

Alright, miserable is the wrong word. I can’t think of the right one right now, but “cheerful” it certainly ain’t.
