From UK press coverage of the album Do You Like Rock Music?:

“Brilliant songs... Stirring anthemics... The glorious sound of a band going for broke.” The Guardian ****

“The unity and sweep of a great film or novel... So sublime it brings a tear to the eye.” Independent On Sunday

“Ambitious, impressive and genuinely moving… chock full of epic music and seductive melodies.” Q magazine ****

“A masterpiece of epic proportions.” The Word magazine

“Steamrollering rock... like a Sherman tank.” The Times ****

“Genius… a guitar laureate’s masterpiece.” Maxim *****

“The first great guitar album of 2008.” Daily Mail *****

“British Sea Power return in style.” Mojo ****

“The most original and enthralling mix of guitar, drums and orchestra since the Flaming Lips’ Soft Bulletin.” Sunday Express *****

“Dangerously epic... it rocks.” Daily Telegraph

“Every track could be a summer festival anthem.” The Sun ****

“Exceptional.” Metro ****

“First contender for album of 2008.” Clash

What else are you going to spend your money on? Food? A knighthood? Oscar de la Renta salopettes for daughter Bluebell? Don’t be silly.



Downloaded it and loved it, reminded me a bit of The Doves
