oh yeah...just listened to the album on nme.com and it's really good!! kaiser chiefs eat you heart out ( similar style, maybe a bit more ska-ish, but far better music )

Got the album for nothing & still feel I was ripped off

They may as well have called themselves Franz Killers Hot Hot Kaiser Party or something.

You`d love them.
