Very cool & a great song choice for it. Recluse has really grown into a favorite for me, esp after hearing it live.
Seems like the band & this cd are getting alot of mainstream attention from the "smart" press for grown-ups in the States: Wall Street Journal, NPR. Distinguish from, for ex Rolling Stone. Can't be a bad thing. Some of that smart/older crowd might be a bit surprised though if they went to a show & realized how hard they still ROCK. The cool thing for fans like me who've grown up with them &, like the boys, am now 40-something, is I still enjoy the fact that they can blow the doors off a theater, BUT I choose to listen to NPR news instead of commercial rock radio hits on my commute. Life is funny.
