Ode to J Smith

Nice thing about working close to the city center is that I can now spend my money even more on CD during luch time... Today, I just boughth the new Travis album: "Ode to J. Smith". Actually, I'm listening to it right now.

And even if I'm not completelyt done yet, after the few songs I've already listened to, my first impressions are:

- Waow..

- Great!

- It rocks

Ok, I'll admit: it needs a bit more information and explanation but I'll come back to this later. This album sounds definitely great. They seem to be back to their "rock-ier" roots. Their sound is unique, very deep and it is less pop-py than the previous one.

Travis seem to be the kind of Band that can issue several albums that from one to the other will have a completely different sound footprint and yet keep their own identity. What more can  you ask? I'm definitely a fan....
