May 2, 2013Excellent album! Such masterpiece is rare in this raw new world but Bugg manages and delivers this, this, this brilliant piece of art. A must hear, recommended!

Nov 23, 2012Great album.Poetic social realism .With a distinctive sound that's certain to have mass appeal, this teen troubadour is set to smash it.Bugg's voice, usually accompanied by little more than an acoustic guitar, takes on a preternatural wisdom.

Apr 4, 2013Jake Bugg's debut combines folksy purity with gritty urban storytelling. His music mirrors his many influences Don McLean, Donovan, Bob Dylan, The Beatles while sounding fresh and vibrant.

May 3, 2013Classic album; 14 songs and the range from ballads to folksy feet stompin toons. Stripped back folk music is the best way to describe. Truly minimalistic in today's music scene. This guy is 2 parts Dylan 1 part Hotel Yorba. Will keep listening for Jake's new stuff.

May 8, 2014El mejor álbum del 2012 por mucho. Dicen que él es el siguiente Bob Dylan y no, él es el primer Jake Bugg. Un primer álbum convincente y con mucha variedad entre las 14 canciones, que viene desde algo eléctrico hasta algo más suave, realmente de lo mejor que ha dado la industria musical últimamente.

Jun 20, 2014Quando eu ouvi esse album eu pensei?Ai meu Deeeeeeus,ele é o melhor cantor que já ouvi.
Sentia falta de um homem que fizesse música boa no mundo da música,temos tão pouco,e ai veio Jake "Salvador" Bugg. -

Jun 18, 2016I saw Bob Dylan again through this album, and think right Noel Gallagher's word about Jake Bugg, "Godlike genius". Literally Jake Bugg is really genius.

Jun 8, 2017The first album from Jake Bugg is more sad than the new one. If you don't pay too much attention to the lyrics you'll see that he's telling a sad story behind the music.
"I drink to remember, I smoke to forget,
Some things to be proud of, some stuff to regret." -
Oct 30, 2020Esto es perfecto como Jake Bugg, nada más tengo para decir, desde el inicio hasta el final.

Jul 22, 2014The most talented songwriter of it's generation. Jake Bugg crafted an album so diverse, fun, great and catchy that it may rank as one of the best albums of 2012.
-
Jan 18, 2014Feels like listening to Bob Dylan. His voice is totally captivating, the lyrics are mature, and the music - while simple - does a great job to fit the overall album mood and his singing style.
For a 19 year old, this is pretty beautiful. I read that his second album wasn't appreciated as his debut, but i'm checking it out anyway. -

Jan 27, 2016An overrated piece of pure drizzle, I was not impressed one bit there wasn't a single song that I wanted to either listen to again or than made me respect Jake as an artist that is for certain. A true miss.

Apr 15, 2013For a teenager's debut, Jake Bugg shows an artist who is crazy fully formed, stepping into a journey that should be worth following.
-
Apr 10, 2013Growing up in the Nottingham projects may have given Bugg enough life experience to get away with penning “Seen It All,” but it’s his sonic aesthetic that give his tales truth.
-
Apr 10, 2013The 19-year-old’s sound combines retro folk with elements of Britpop that’s as raw as it is original, which equals one of the more exciting debuts in some time.
