If you like Damien Rice give the latest album by Five For Fighting a try. It's called The Battle For Everything and it truly is a magnificent album and the best album I have listened to since Under Rug Swept by Alanis Morissette.

Some tracks are similar in style to Damien Rice's music and if you watch Smallville you will probably recognise a couple of songs.

It's good to see that someone's got taste. :)

You should also try his other album, America Town, not as good but still contains some good songs especially Superman (It's Not Easy).

Indeed it is! I heard Cannonball on a compilation album and I loved it!

I just listened to 'Volcano - Reggae version' on his site - I nearly got me bongos out :D - vocals were a bit down in the mix at the beginning & I nearly turned it off, but I'm glad I didn't ;)

Does anyone else here notice crackles and pips on their CD copy? The sound quality seems to be pretty poor IMO on the CD. I though it was my Hi-Fi but i just tried a few other albums and they are fine so it must be the CD.

Actually maybe - i tried this out on a mates CD player and my PC and the sound quality sounds crap on both.

Can somebody try this for me (green reppy :D ) Goto the last track - track 10, 9:05 in and listen from there for about 20 seconds (its the first of two "hidden" tracks just before the "Silent night" which does sound awesome) - does anyone else hear lots of distortion and crackling or is it just my CD?

Ta.

Edit: Also if you listen to track 1, 2:32 seconds in - he even really twangs a chord - dont get me wrong - not sayin i could do any better, but then i aint getting paid for it. :D
