    A postcard-perfect summer pop jam, "Don't Give Up" is one of many delights on Chicane's much-anticipated sophomore album, "Behind The Sun."
  2. Almost Cool
    60
    It's a little cheesier than the average trance album, but will probably appeal to some of those who enjoy Paul Van Dyk or even ATB
  3. New Musical Express (NME)

    Anodyne dance music for people who don't go to clubs, comedown music for people who don't do drugs.

    "Anodyne dance music for people who don't go to clubs, comedown music for people who don't do drugs. " The usual useful and pragmatic review from NME. I'm surprised it hasn't got more overt political undertones! Irrespective of NME and their inability to review music coherently, this album is a classic and is simply perfect for the summer. One of my favorite albums. Ever.… Expand

    One of the best albums of the genre. Those ratings don't do justice.
