    What's striking about Dig Out Your Soul is how its relentless onslaught of sound proves as enduring as the tunes.

    If there are moments when the feted snap and snarl of yore amounts to little more than ramming generic blues licks down the audience's throat, they're tempered with moments of discovery like the lysergic 'To Be Where There's Life' and 'Falling Down' which displays an uncharacteristic lightness of touch.

    An overall sound that's been compressed and flatlined into one continuous buzz, this sounds like a tired band that had already gone through the motions before it even started.

    Great first half, first 5 tracks are amazing. High Horse Lady is good, though a bit to repititive in my opinion. Falling Down is perhaps the best song on the album. The latter songs are of lesser quality. To be Where There's Life is still quite good, but Ain't Got Notin' is awful, as is The Nature of Reality. Soldier On is a decent ending, but lacks the brilliance of a song like Champagne Supernova. Overall a pretty good album, but could have been better.… Expand

    The used to be the best band in the world, now they are the best BLAND in the world. If only Noel could come up with at least one good tune. This is all sound over substance. So disappointing.… Expand
