This has probably come up before but there's a nice review of the Old Trafford gig in this month's Uncut magazine - the review is extremely favourable (I think its the same hack who creamed his pants over the Olympia gig last year), and also describes "YSF" as "...a blissed-out midsummer bauble", which is almost as perfect as the song in question.

On another note, yank would-be New Wavers Interpol are getting some extremely positive press mostly including comparisons to Joy Division. I bought the record, and its very good. The JD influence is definitely there on a few tracks, and they sometimes sound like Doves at their moodiest (no bad thing), but mostly they sound like the much-missed (by me, anyway) Kitchens of Distinction who, incidentally, used to cover "Dead Souls" from time to time.....
