    this album is one of the best records that i've ever listened to. they use more strings on this one than any of their previous releases, but i think it suites craig's voice perfectly, giving the record an overall softer feel. they still maintain their heaviness but in a more dramatic and dynamic fashion, taking it up and down so smoothly that it is probably their easiest album this album is one of the best records that i've ever listened to. they use more strings on this one than any of their previous releases, but i think it suites craig's voice perfectly, giving the record an overall softer feel. they still maintain their heaviness but in a more dramatic and dynamic fashion, taking it up and down so smoothly that it is probably their easiest album to listen to, for those of you that can't handle the serious rock. these guys deserve much more recognition that they get, and in my opinon, the best album of 07 so far.

    since their very beginnings they've been getting better and better with each release. this album is so surprising, subtle, grand, whatever. it's incredible and deserves the attention of any music fan.

    Ive loved aereogramme since hearing A Story in White years ago. Went to see them live in feb after hearing 'My Heart...' only once- they were excellent. While i dont think this abl is as good as White or Sleep and Release it is better than Seclusion which doesnt quite cut it. If you like any of Aereogramme's stuff you will like this. The highlights are Exits, A Life Worth Ive loved aereogramme since hearing A Story in White years ago. Went to see them live in feb after hearing 'My Heart...' only once- they were excellent.

  1. It does signal a turn toward a more thoughtful, artistically ambitious sound than before, not just maintaining the Scottish neo-prog quartet's penchant for forward movement but catapulting them out of minor-league status.
  2. Here, Aereogramme have created something more than deserving of all the praise lavished upon it.

    An album that sounds like it was written as a soundtrack to the best film never made. [20 Jan 2007, p.31]
