A Great British Pop Band Album
I think this is a great CD. I can listen to it over and over and never get tired of it. This album is a nice change from most modern pop/rock bands since this band is minus a guitar player. The band has a more delicate pop/rock sound with only vocals, drums, and a piano. The sound of the piano in "Somewhere Only We Know" is enchanting. Not only is their music pleasing, but the lyrics in their songs are heartfelt and catchy. The vocals of leader singer Tom Chaplin are captivating. He is able to hit a wide range of keys, even the high ones like in "She Has No Time".As for sounding similar to the band Coldplay, I believe Keane has their own unique sound. But, if you enjoy bands like Coldplay, Radiohead, and Oasis, then I would recommend this CD.
