After the success of the Killers and Franz Ferdinand, the world is crawling with rock dudes who've suddenly discovered their deep and abiding respect for the Cure's Robert Smith. Enter the Bravery, who got together in New York barely more than a year ago but who already have fans drooling for their heavily anticipated debut album of synth-heavy goth pop. Singer Sam Endicott looks like a cross between Morrissey and the bald punk guy who befriends Eric Stoltz in Some Kind of Wonderful. The Bravery do a jockier version of the New Wave competition, pumping the drums in straight-ahead tunes such as "An Honest Mistake" and "The Ring Song." But the peak is "Swollen Summer," which combines the best of early Love and Rockets with late Flesh for Lulu.
