Will gave it a6:
I was dissappointed. The first few songs are excellent but the rest is a bit uninspiring and the music becomes a little bland and predictable.
Jay K gave it a4:
Despite all the hype, this album is not that good. Musically, it does stop you in your tracks when you hear its sound. Lyrically, however, it is brain-dead. Most 14-year old children of divorced parents could write more meaningful lyrics than those of "Daddy's gone". This song reminds me of Mike Myers singing "Just the two of us" in Austin Powers.
Wes M. gave it a9:
The tunes are like Oasis-meets-the-Jesus-and-Mary-Chain-meet-the-Kooks, good lyrics, though I admit I think the Scottish brogue is only really charming when not wailing over music.
Mojo Pin gave it a9:
Genuine and sincere, that's what makes it stand out against all the other copy-cat crap that's out there.
Shaz K. gave it a9:
Simply put - a totally stunning album.
Jonathan B. gave it a10:
A once in a generation fantastic album.
