um... they're both really good, but neither is groundbreaking. Just more of the same for both bands. (after a really long wait, that is). I'd skip both and go with a (possibly older) cd by a band you've never heard before. You know, broaden your horizons and all. Try some Morrissey, Underworld, Shonen Knife, Cibo Matto; if you like Britpop, Techno, Pop-punk, or alternative respectively. And yes, I'm sure tons have you have already heard all of the bands I mentioned, just trying to provoke some thought...
