You can listen to the new album here: http://3voor12.vpro.nl/luisterpaal/ It's getting good reviews in iTunes anyway, 24 reviews so far on the UK site, and every one is giving it a 4 or a 5. Normally you get at least one or two people giving it bad reviews, but there's not one. It sounds alright actually I think, from a first listen to the first track it seems really like the old stuff. It says that it was recorded at the famous Sound City studios, where Nirvana recorded some of there music, so maybe they are trying to grunge it up.
