Do you think they'll make it to the very top?

Or am i being too optimistic?

Cant see them headlining festivals, last album was good but didnt blast them to the next level

Im hoping the next album will be a cracker

Nah. They were awesome when they started. Youth was a hell of a record.

They are The Kings Of Mediocrity these days.

They have gone for a commercial sound, soft rock stadium anthems et al, and even perfect diction.

Where are the jumbled vocals, razor sharp lyrics, great swirling and distorted guitar, great songs about country hicks and chicks, where are the songs that deserved to get the JD out over???????

Sell outs.

So are their gigs.

Like they've said themselves a few times, they could either have been a band that makes only 3 albums, or try something new which they did. Had they not done so then their sound would have been the same and then people would still moan. Because of the Times is their best album IMO

'Welcome To The North' would be one of my signature tunes.

(It goes on a bit, mind.)

It's a tune mate but it's all about The People for me.

Nice one. Any particular artists?

Can't say I know many particular artists so i've just been popping on the odd bits ive discovered on youtube whilst having a cig with the front door open. Bet the neighbours love me. Also plan on attending Sub Dub soon but i've been saying that for around a year.

Got any recommendations?
