May 13, 2012Sonik Kicks is the eleventh in Paul Weller's career album kept in the style of rock. Anyway, a very decent album, on which also appear Noel Gallagher and Graham Coxon from Blur band. While listening it is worth paying attention to: "Around The Lake" - led by the bass parts, or interestingly arranged, electronic "Green".

Apr 30, 2012This is one of the best Paul Weller records I have heard. The songs are really strong, the production is fairly experimental and overall it's an enjoyable record. The Modfather is leading by example, still trying out new things that those he's influenced (eg Noel Galagher) still wouldn't dream of doing on a record.

Apr 5, 2012This is Weller at his best. He shows all the critcs that he is able to fuse different Genres together and produce an album that surpasses all before! If you like Weller of old dont be fooled to think this is a Jam sound a like album. This stands on its own two feet, and gives him even more creditiblity. Dragonfly, By the water and Attic are my stand out tracks. Must own!

Apr 3, 2012Sonik Kicks may prove his most intriguing effort yet, an album awash in psychedelic suggestion, cosmic noodling and swooping, soaring performances driven by fresh enthusiasm.

Apr 3, 2012With Sonik Kicks, Weller's silk-and-smoke voice sounds as good as ever, and his status as a soulful, folky, yet forceful songsmith remains ironclad. Next time around, though, an extra round of editing might not hurt.

Mar 29, 2012This is a record that buzzes with ideas, it's giddy with the noise it makes, and once its initial rush fades away, it still has plenty to offer in substantive songs and sheer sonic pleasure.
