    All in all, this may be a band somewhat out of step with their country, but European Soul is all the richer for it, and a refreshing change to the norm.

    To be sure, there are some first-rate potential singles hiding amidst the bombast.

    There’s a bit of filler in the form of the relatively stagnant ‘Xmas In Japan’; but pretty much all of the other tracks are just great big fun dancefloor fillers.
