Listening now.
Richard might have overdone it with strings this time... and I'm usually a sucker for strings!

A few good tunes, but not worth waiting 6 years for.

"They Don't Own Me" "Everybody Needs Somebody to Hurt" "Black Lines" "This Is How It Feels" "These People"
are top IMHO!

After the first listen: it's not very good.
There are a few nice songs, but most of it is totally forgettable. Maybe it'll grow on me a bit.

There are good songs, but I don't like the production. Acoustic versions will be great.

'How the west was lost' sounds really interesting

Some good songs on what I think is a fairly middle of the road album on the whole.

read some reviews before i listened to it and its better then what critics are saying about it, 3 or 4 pretty good songs but theres are few that are no good.
hopefully the bonus track is good.

They Don't Own Me is good a few other tracks will be good but only when he plays them acoustically. The overproduction is just abysmal. I just hope he does a stripped back album in the future.

Yeah, the production is pretty overwhelming. I like "Picture of You" and "Black Lines" the most and after those "They Don't Own Me" and "Everybody Needs Somebody To Hurt". The singles are good too.
I can hear hear Cry 'Til The Morning in "Ain’t The Future So Bright", but think it and "Songs Of Experience" are the worst on it.

Just got my copy and I'm listening to track 5 "These People" as I type. This song has a bit riff from "Lucky Man". It's nothing near to what he's done in past, but I think it's not fair to compare them, especially with The Verve. I don't know what to say about the "Out Of My Body" and "Everybody Needs Somebody To Hurt". "Two boys Sonny and Cassius I love you. This album is dedicated to my beautiful wife Kate. Thanks for the love and support with love forever. Rich" Richard playing at Chris Evans show this morning (02:05:08): www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b07b2l8f#playSongs For The Loves, Hold On, Lucky Man and a cover. Would somebody *cough eva cough* mind to rip the audio please? Thanks in advance!

Really enjoying it so far I must say. It's the type of album that will sound great at 2 o clock in the morning.

heres my initial thoughts, havnt listened to all the songs enough times yet to review it properly.
this is probably the highlight of the album for me, great sound, nice lyrics, just grabs me.
these people is essentially lucky man 2.0, songs of experience ending guitar solo could be louder and fades out abit too soon for my liking, out of my body sounds better live, think there needs to be more bass.
atm its an alright album imo, most of the songs are ok, its probably more consistent as a whole album than some of his others.
