BrianSFeb 7, 20062Arrogance can make you look an idiot and such is the case with Richard Ashcroft. He seems to believe that if he tells us he is the savious of rock we will believe him. If he writes a decent song again, some might. if he keeps writing boring, MOR, lifeless, soulless rubbish he will become more and more of a laughing stock. Terrible album, like all his solo work

Mr.SJan 28, 20063I walked in expecting a swan song for the ex-Verve one hit wonder, but once again I find out, that after years and years of hiding behind walls of reverb, Ashcroft being left naked out in the open is a pretty sad thing to endure. Disappointing.

cravenmFeb 2, 20061Mr. Ashcroft is merely treading water here. And it's dirty, putrid bathwater at that. Sounds like a bad impression of his other albums and those were rubbish to begin with. Boo.

GavinDFeb 1, 20062Why Not Nothing and Sweet Brother Malcolm aside this is an appalling album. For once the critics have got it right. The fans... Blinkered is a word that comes to mind. Desperate is another. Avoid!!!

Mr.TFeb 1, 20060What a gigantic turd of a record! Time for this guy to hang it up. I cannot believe this is the same man who used to shout "THIS IS ROCK N ROLL!". It is rock n roll anymore, and it's clearly not any good.

skipeMar 5, 20061Absolutely terrible... I can't believe how full of shit King Richard is. Who is this guy kidding? He may have been the frontman for the Verve, but what's becoming increasingly apparent with each solo release is that former magic came from someone/somewhere else.. give it up Richard... I'll mail ya some razors.

Radiolab?Dec 7, 20094The single "Music is Power" and title track "Keys to the World" are both fantastic and remind you of the heights Ashcroft is capable of. However, the rest of the album falls far short. It's hard to listen to without thinking how much better this could've been were it made by The Verve.

CarlosFeb 1, 20064Not the worst I have listened to, but certainly a word defines it: boring! Agree that Ashcroft´s carrer is quite disappointing, especially after the superb last Verve´s album.

DebbieHFeb 6, 20061It's time for Richie to hang it up. And it's well past time for me to shut up. I am a senseless twit and this record is still beneath me. That's how bad it is. Putrid.

70His voice sounds better than ever, and while nothing here recaptures the glory years of The Verve, his songs are more focused than ever before.

40Too much is sodden with his overbearing ego.

30How the mighty have truly fallen.
