Okay, I'll admit it -- I'm addicted.

Any other fans?

I've been watching the Welcome Home video over and over since they put it up on their site. I've got all their stuff,  very cool :twisted:

they seem all right from the couple of videos i've seen on kerrang and scuzz. Decent, but not amazing, IMO.

Definately addicted here too. I haven't heard their first album though. Maybe I'll borrow it off of a friend.

Yes, and I'm not afraid to admit I was wrong.

The soloing is terrible (a BIG minus to me), but the writing is great, the hooks are a mile wide, and their sound is ORIGINAL.

Well I'm on the "really don't like them" boat, I'm afraid. Is it just me or are their songs terribly produced? The worst production on a video I've ever heard, actually. Are they any good live?

I don't enjoy the singing or the guitar-work, particularly - much prefer Opeth.  :)
Hoble Guitars. Mule + MM so far.

I don't like them - his voice irritates me. they're kinda sounding prog-post-hardcore to me - and thats just not my bag. Bonus marks for originality though - yu'd definately recognise them whether yu liked their stuff or not.
LOVING the Mules!
