This thread just reminded me that I have Catch Without Arms somewhere on my hard drive and that I should probably listen to it.

I was a big fan of El Cielo. An incredible album.
Other than that, no.
I heard some of their recent stuff and it was too generic, trying too hard to appeal to so many people and neglecting fans of their old style in the process.

Wasn't completely sure reviving old threads on here was okay.

I agree their new album is pretty bad but i think people should pay a little more attention to their previous works like their 2009 album which was great imo.

They're a good band. The Lead singer has a great voice, and each Album sounds very different. Leitmotif is heavier, El Cielo is experimental and evocative but a tad meandering, Catch Without Arms is simpler and less cohesive, but contains some of their best singles, The Pariah, The Parrot, and The Delusion is a good mix of the previous two (their best work imo), and their new album is rubbish. The first 4 are worth getting if you enjoy experimental music and can abide the pretension that inevitably goes with it.
