Great reviews all round, and for good reason. It's a fucking masterpiece. Not one "ordinary" song on there, a proper album that needs to be listened to in it's entirety. In short - Music for grown ups.

Ignore that, honestly. I thought that, then i saw what it was actually a review of. Honestly ignore that, if it was music for grown ups NME wouldn't have given it 9/10.

I think what they're getting at is it's not music for scenester indie kids with their identikit haircuts.

Ask Bill, he likes them...you liek Bill's taste in music.
