Love that after 20 years away this band could still make beautiful music seemingly effortless

This hasn't lost any of its sparkle. I really hope they continue to make new music, because this album is nothing short of fantastic. Perfect for winter mornings.

When the band reformed and started cobbling this album together I wonder what they thought? There’s magic on this.

Is it considered controversial to say that Slomo is the best thing they've ever written?

It's super good but Souvlaki is special. So, no. Definitely worth it though! Lovely record.

Tbh I much prefer the sound here to Souvlaki, which itself is a bit overrated

Hmm yeah, if you prefer a cleaner sound this would be better. I'm a huge sucker for that distinct 90s feel though, so I'll take Souvlaki over this every day.

Plus I can't stand Falling Ashes, it even annoys me a bit. Whereas Souvlaki has no single wasted second.

It just sounds a bit dated now, Neil's performance reminds me of a million forgotten annoying britpop singers. The way the vocals are mixed here compliments their sound a lot better

I do agree it trails off in the second half, the production is just too gorgeous though

Agreed, gorgeous album, superb comeback. Star Roving is that rare track combining catchyness with quality, can't get enough of it.
