This is a great tune. In fact the whole album rocks, this isn't even close to the best song on there (that honor belongs to Certain Tragedy). Anyway, it sounds a little like a lost Gang of 4 album. Their other two albums don't even compare.
I love Radio 4. Gotham! is an incredible album. I'd have to agree that yes, their newer album sucks, but I do enjoy their first album.
If you even remotely like "Eyes Wide Open," I strongly recommend Gotham! Amighty is right- there are much better songs on there!
If you can find it, pick up their "live at Southstreet Seaport NYC 2002" album. Early versions of their early material, sounds great.
