Scissor Sisters

The Times of London loves the new album. Still waiting for Jen's review:

"In Britain we expect a certain amount of camp from our entertainers — and yet it’s hard to imagine that there might have been a British Scissor Sisters, a band who understood the straight-up disco potential in covering Pink Floyd’s Comfortably Numb for their debut single. Being out about your sexuality is one thing, but such is the lingering tribalism left by punk’s year-zero approach, that being out about the unholy triumvirate of 1970s genres — soft-rock, beard-rock and disco — is another thing entirely...If Scissor Sisters have felt any kind of pressure to extend the run of hits spawned by their first album, you wouldn’t know it by listening to this guileless, celebratory record. Might Tell You Tonight is a cry for a home where new love waits for the first time, allied to an industrially adhesive chorus."

"I don't feel like dancin' " is stuck in my head!!!!!! But damn, I love the Scissor Sisters!!!!! Yesterday I downloaded "Ambition" and it's a great, smooth track.

I-Can-Not-Wait for the rest of the album to become available for download. You have no idea how excited I am about this. I am such a dork!
