Had a quick listen on Spotify, it did sound spacious with a powerful deep bass. Really enjoyed the slide guitar solo on one of the earlier tracks. The boys sound a bit more grown up now, I noticed (vs The Optmist/Ether Song). Might have to get a proper copy of it and then turn the wick up when the neighbours are out
