Thanks Plankton! I'm in two minds about the new FNM, they have some great cuts in the album, like Sol Invictus, Sunny Side Up and Separation Anxiety and Mother****er, but the album isn't without its clunkers either.
Horses for courses, I guess, but I consider Album of the Year and The Real Thing as better rounded offerings.

I'm curious about life in Australia. We just went on holiday with a remarkable woman from New South Wales, near Young. She is a sheep farmer with 17,000 sheep. She gave descriptions of a rugged existence there that fascinated me. Many species of birds visit her property including cockatoos who come to eat grain outside her kitchen window. That sounded almost magical.
"The Middle" by Jimmy Eat World is one of my favorite songs. Your mentioning the group made me realize I haven't looked into any of their recent music.
I hope you'll have a great time here discussing and listening to music with other music aficionados!

Thanks Vegangelica
There are certainly areas that are as idyllic as you imagine, it really is a lovely area - though drought is a serious issue.
I live in a urban area west of Brisbane, and the birdlife - even here - is beautiful. We see many Cockatoos and Galahs around our house, and you will often see Galahs foraging by the roadside in areas. Kookaburras are also known to make their presence heard of a morning around here too
If you've not listened to Jimmy Eat World's 'Futures' album already, I strongly recommend it. Its solid.
