good news. Although I will confess, this band did some really cool things on 2004's Humbility; by having bass/groove or almost funky styles of rock music. And more progressive, for that reason, in some ways. The EP they released in 2008 Covetous and the other songs they've played live since, are more purely power-pop, almost Cheap Trick-like, which in some ways is cool and appealing. But I can't deny, what I like most about this band is how they get experimental at times. I hope these upcoming releases still include that side to them. But we'll know obviously pretty soon.
