    Travis put out their most mature album up to date! I am perhaps a bit subjective, being a long avid Travis fan but this album is really very fun with a lot of sing-along tunes. Give it a listen!

    Following from "Where You Stand", an album which I deemed to be a slight disappointment on Travis's behalf, I expected a more concise set of tracks this time around. True, my wish was granted, as nothing on here stoops as low as to reach the levels of "Reminder" or "New Shoes", yet nothing really blows me away either.

True, my wish was granted, as nothing on here stoops as low as to reach the levels of "Reminder" or "New Shoes", yet nothing really blows me away either. My favourite track on here, "Animals", had so much potential to be truly fantastic, and whilst it still certainly hits the mark, it just strikes me as resembling a fairly weak Manic Street Preachers song. "Radio Song" and the title track are also decent tracks to take from this record, the latter sporting a big chorus that hits you flat in the face (sung by Dougie Payne), and I also appreciate the vaguely 'grandiose' intent the band had with "Paralysed". But once you've sat through the comprehensive bore-fest that is "All of the Places" and realised that nothing substantial is to come afterwards, you can't help recalling once again that underwhelming feeling. Overall, it's a decent record, nothing amazing yet nothing truly awful, but I'm sure the band are still capable of producing something fantastic, as long as they just pull their fingers out next time.

    Of course, after some really good singles, which stayed my favourites songs from album, I was waiting for something better. However, while "Paralysed" and "All of the Places" are huge disappointments, some songs are definetely on par with previous Travis albums. Radio Song is probably one of their best singles so far which has potential to be aired on a radio (no pun intended).

    It’s doubtful Everything At Once will arrest gentle Travis’s steady slide. But they are certainly not done yet; their rabbit is out of the bag and it’s worth catching.

    Everything at Once is their liveliest and most lighthearted effort to date, a celebration of both their legacy and their maturity.

    It might all sound as comfortable as an old cardigan feels but at this point, that seems fair enough. [Jul 2016, p.115]
