I like Teddy Picker!

It's a grower.

Assuming that all things are equal,
Who'd want to be men of the people

But more importantly, their sophomore album Favourite Worst Nightmare was pretty damn average – a fact (yep, fact) brought home by new single ‘Teddy Picker’ (Domino ***), where what is intended to be razor sharp and perceptive feels dull and lifeless. Gang of Four, anyone?


oooooo media backlash ? what's happened have they become too popular ?

their second album * avoids use of posey 'sophomore' word :) * was a million time better than their weedy first effort
