This is just what we expect from Travis: supermarket music. The kind of boring, sweet, melodious and sometimes desperating songs of love and alienation. No more and no less.
Marcel C gave it a10:
This is a gem of an album,in my opinion their most consistent to date...getting a hammering from the critics which is unjustified...great comeback and receiving high rotation from this listener.
Steve M gave it a9:
Just like other users have said - the critics have it wrong. It's a great record. It falls just short of "The Man Who" and trumps all other Travis albums in my opinion. It's great to have them back.
Joe M gave it a9:
what a great cd! i can't understand why critic dump on Travis so bad? they stay as original as when they first came out thats why the fans stay true.they do what they want and to the fans thats what they want.they don't want to be like anybody else.they want to be like Travis.i wont even compare this cd with their others .they are all great in my opinion,even 12 memories which i really like too.

I love Travis's music and they have done a great job with this album. I am throughly dissappointed with the music critics though - they are complete out of syn with what people what to hear. Everyone who has listened to it - feels the same way - essentially its a great album, I highly recommend it.

This album is like meeting an old friend after a few years and you don't want to lose him again!
Steve E gave it a9:
Travis doing what they do best. Ignore the critics who have a downer on this sort of music at the moment. Best offering since The Man Who. Top stuff.
