    Just got their new album, More Adventurous, and i have to say is definetely a contender for album of the year.

    For anyone thats never heard of them their sound is ranges from indie pop in the same vain as the sundays (check out "Its a hit" and "Portions for foxes" which was used on the O.C a while back) to pure pop for grown ups ("I Never") which wouldnt be out of place on a Patsy Cline record and then to country folk in the guise of "Absense of God" and "A Man/Me/Then Jim".

    I cant recommend this album enough, Its all i have listened too in the last week, and i listen to a lot of music.

    Between themselves and Bright Eyes its been an exceptional start to the year.

    You can have a listen on http://www.rilokiley.com/

    Theres a flash player on the website and you can skip through the songs from the new album there.

    Check out the opening verse of "Its a Hit" (the first song), comparing George Bush to a chimp, class!
