Um, no.

Although, there are better dream pop/fuzz rock outfits out there.

  - I thought the thread was a joke thread.
    
    Howling Bells are one of the top 5 bands of the last few years.

    - in fact, the only better bands are:
      
      brmc, the strokes, ryan adams, white stripes
      
      And the only reason for that is - they have more to go from.

- Ken Nelson DID produce records for both bands...

  - Well...
    
    He produced 'Howling Bells', but 'Radio Wars' was produced by Dan Grech-Marguerat.

    - Sorry, I misread that!
      
      I thought you said he produced both records. My bad.

pretty simular I guess in the intro at least, I've not heard the band before I cant go beyond that.

from coldplay to radiohead...? no that was wrong..

to go from coldplay's producer ken nelson to dan thingy who was radiohead's engineer-cum-mixer dude in shadow of nigel godrich seems just a little too considered for a band that have talent (some) but seem so BOTHERED to be hip and cool and sadly take so long to write mediocre songs that by the time the tracks are mixed, produced that SOUND is then out of date and hackneyed!! they should have stuck to the pop music they used to release in Oz..

Yes!!!

I thought the same thing. Of course, they are exactly the same but I think there is a definite influence there.
