    Trite rubbish. Cannot believe this rehash of every cliche in rock is being hailed as some sort of second coming.

  1. A turn towards pop has alienated some fans of their earlier work, but almost everything here could be released as a single, and that’s an undeniably winning achievement.
  2. Can you hear it? It’s here! Biffy finally make that sprint-burst into the rock stratosphere and trample over the competition like badly tattooed elephants smashing through dead branches.
  3. It's likely that their slabs of noise are too explosive. But for Team Biffy, their followers, this is a strength, not a failing.
