  1. A whole album as hyperactive would be exhausting, of course, but unlike the majority of indie plodders, The Feeling have real range.
  2. 80
    Here is a pop masterpiece so toe-tapping and huggable that we might just have to rearrange the canon. [Mar 2008, p.106]
  3. It's just impossible to hate something so glorious.
  4. Join With Us's classic radio pop unveils a band so accomplished, so guilelessly in love with the joy of a good melody, that they now sound like no one but themselves.
  5. Join With Us proves The Feeling are the band most likely to give power-pop a good name.
  6. When they stop bing so smart, Join With Us becomes more rewarding. [Mar 2008, p.106]
  7. 40
    Album two finds them pressing the Gilbert O'SuperTramp button with gusto. [Mar 2008, p.87]
  8. Despite their confidence, the writing seems flat, which leads you to concentrate more on the gaudy settings than the songs.
