Businessmen & Ghosts
Not so long ago, one of my friend tell me to check out this band, which eventually i found it good. This is a band from England consisting the member of Devo, The Chemical Brothers and The Grateful Dead. Based on Manchester. This is their second album but since it consist all the song from the first album too in 2 disc, so i think this is their first album. From my opinion sometimes it remind me of Coldplay, Bloc Party, UNKLE, and even Massive Attack. Well UK music is always feel like similar because the Accent, music atmosphere, and sound mixing.

My favourite track is "Troubled Son", "Rocket", and "England". Personally i like this album. There's constant static mood from start till end, what i mean is, it consist fast, middle, and slow tempo spreading entire 2 disc album. Well it's not make the perfect album but still good enough. I give personal score of this album 7,8 ratings.
