The Human Body E.P.

This EP finds Brighton, England's band at a perfect mid-point between the guitar-pop rush of their first album (2002's Holes In The Wall) and the studied, symphonic arrangements of their second (2003's The American Adventure). These seven tracks (plus a US bonus track) are ESP's best work to date. Most notably, "Cold World" skips along like a Paul McCartney-penned Strokes track and "Everybody Wants" is a sweeping epic of a song that punctuates the band's enduring ambition.
