Bought "Aha Shake Breakheart" today...very good. I knew about them from their first album "Youth and Young Manhood," but I never bought the CD. Typically I buy a new disc, listen twice, then put away till the next day. I really liked the first two listens. I know they are opening up for U2 on their next tour. Anybody else into these cats???

Mr. cleanface,
I also really like this band. I thought the first cd would get the word out since two singles played heavy on the radio, but they seemed to fly under the radar. Anyhow, the new cd is just as good as the previous. Also I read this review and found it quite entertaining.
"Three hairy young brothers (and a cousin) grew up traversing the rural South with their preacher dad but were ultimately seduced by the devil’s music. (Yes! Fear the reaper!) Of course, Europe ate it up and turned the Kings into, well, kings. Here in the U.S., where rednecks are about as exotic as cans of Copenhagen and gun racks, the reaction was more muted. Their second record will make it harder for the natives to resist" They got 4 out of 5 stars, pretty good. Maxim cd review
