With the new and equally impressive Gang of Losers, this wonderful band from Canada do not recreate No Cities Left. Which is a great thing. The intro to Gang of Losers would lead us to believe we are in for a supersonic sounding album. How quickly things change with the first actual song, coincidentally the first single from this masterwork. I was surprised to discover a sound that is much rawer than The Dears previous efforts. Almost a grunge sound on a few songs. There are definitely echoes of The Smiths scattered about in little vignettes. When listening to this album pay special attention to the wonderful tracks Bandwagoneers, Ballad of Humankindness and You and I are a Gang of Losers. Murray Lightburn puts his emotially charged voice on display in his chant "Heaven knows that I'm a fake" on Bandwagoneers. Heaven may know Mr. Lightburn but those of us not to divinely gifted can't see anything fake going on here.. The Dears - Ticket To Immortality they're from Canada...it's just that they are heavily influenced by british music...like the smiths, blur, etc...,which is great... The Dears - You And I Are A Gang Of Losers (Video) why is this song not big right now or at any time? i guess it's good to keep gems like this hidden, i like when i play a song and people are like "how do you hear about these good songs" i just simply tell them, there's more bands out there then what you hear all day on the radio.. Nice to see a music vid with a lead singer who can truly sing ..
