So do I. I think the "Spectorized" tracks are the strongest. I still think the album is not nearly as good as their first.

"The Express said Starsailor and Elbow were the next Coldplay. So glad there will be more bands like Coldplay! They're amazing!"   that is what you originally offered.  Before you posted the review Rhett. dont pretend you dont remember being a buttmunch before posting the review.

I had a very different reaction to the 2nd album...some songs were more immediate, but as a whole, I guess the first album did make sense to me sooner.  That said, after listening to a number of songs on SIE a few more times, I grew to love them.  It's like all of a sudden I got it.  They made sense.  A couple of those songs I was iffy about at first are now my favorites on the album.  I definitely agree that 'Silence is Easy' is one of the stronger songs on there though...not so sure about 'White Dove.'

Ok, so I posted a bit of the review from the Express, with my own positive commentary tacked on.
 
 I thought perhaps the Coldplay comparison might be helpful for the person wrinting the review for BY. Perhaps they could refute is as part of their review, or agree with it. eg: Some critics have compared Starsailor to Coldplay. This seems a bit redicuous based on their performance Sunday night, blah blah blah...

Is the two for one special with the Starsailor show actually real? Where does it actually say this? I might get dragged to the show if it is, but i want to be sure first.

Yes, it's for real. They do it for shows that nobody seems to be buying tickets for. Print out the coupon from the email and bring to the box office the night of show.

i'm really surprised by this 2 for 1 deal--starsailor filled the place about 1/2 last year--not to bad for a one album band. they've gotten more hype this time around so, while not expecting a sellout, i was expecting an equal to or better than turnout than prior.
