They're also doing arena shows opening for Coldplay. I wonder what their audience thinks?

Just put it on a few weeks ago for a friend who'd never heard it. Don't actually know what he thought of it, but I loved the hell out of it.

Seen mixed reviews of it, but have not heard it yet myself (well, one song).

NPR is streaming it for a bit

Back in 2005 dimanche a bamako was my winter commute to work album, played on some horrendous quarter a gig samsung mp3 player that seemed like good kit at the time. I still love this album but have given up trying work out where the fuck the last decade has gone.

I couldn't pick a fave because the album is jam-packed, but this ruled.
