Keane - Perfect Symmetry. Perfect Symmetry (2008, Island) Keane's third studio album. * *. Radical departures are usually a curse. But when you're a band that doesn't have much to lose (beyond your fanbase), there isn't much harm in trying. Train hasn't learned this lesson, and the Killers did the hard way; they sacrificed undeserved critical praise to get more airtime on MTV with. Take a trip back to the 80's.
