I finally got around to buying the EP and I really like it. I hear Echo & the Bunnymen and the Smiths (esp. "In Los Angeles"), and also early U-2. The latter would not ordinarily be much of a compliment coming from me but the vocals have a similar achy, soaring feel.
Coincidentally, I picked up the new special edition of Echo & the Bunnymen's "Ocean Rain" at the same time and I noticed some parallels in the lyrical themes as well as the sound.
