Just picked up Keane's "Hopes and Fears" after reading so many positive things about it and I was blown away. These guys are clearly influenced by Radiohead and Coldplay. And if you like either of those two bands (I do), you're gonna love this album. Big time. The lead singer, Tom Chaplin, has such a beautiful voice. I actually think it's better than Thom York and Chris Martin. And at times, he even echoes Freddie Murcury during Queen's golden age. Fantastic album. Please go listen to a few of the soundbites on amazon. Enjoy!
Good ol' DVDTalk search engine strikes again. Nothing showed up when I put in Keane. Including my own thread when I did it just now.

I shopped around and found a pretty cheap price on this: $9.51 shipped at Cheap-CDs.com (http://cheap-cds.com/surf/disps/457921). I've bought stuff from them before and they're pretty good. Anyway, hope I could help. :)
