Album Review: Perfect Symmetry

I am probably the last to have heard Keane's newest album but things have been a little busy. Plus since leaving NZ it feels like my music inspiration has dried up. With Snow Patrol and now Keane, things are looking up.
I like this new album. Like Snow Patrol latest,
Perfect Symmetry seems a little on the safe side as well, but I can't complain. Maybe it's because Tom Chaplin is now all cleaned up from rehab or something. In this case settled seems good and they sound as if they have found a groove. To me the other albums seemed a bit unstable and less polished. Sometimes you wondered if they wouldn't be able to keep it together enough to be around for very long. Anyway the songs from this album that stick out to me so far are: Spiralling, You Don't See Me, Again & Again and Love Is The End. Sometimes I hear some Killers-like sounds in here, only the lyrics actually make sense;)
