Easily Ash's best

I'm a big Ash fan and have all the albums, but have to say that, post-1977, their LPs have been patchy at best.

The big problem was the number of throw-away tracks, made up for by simply inspired classics such as Jesus Says, Envy, Shining Light, Orpheus, the list goes on.

So I was surprised and frankly blown away by this album, which is easily their best and takes Ash to the next level.

Brilliant album - even if only for the fans

Well, I've been an ash fan since I was very voung. To me '1977' will probably always be there best, but that may just be sentimental. 'Nuclear Sounds' was great too in my opinion, tho in nobody elses. 'Free All Angels' was a brilliant instant pop album, and 'Meltdown' was a great idea for an album, but with pretty average songs. It amazes me that some people actually think thats their best. What planet are they on!

In a way this album kinda reminds of 'Road To Rouen' by Supergrass, not just coz it's their 5th, but coz there aren't really any cheap poppy hooks. All the melodies are strongly built and take a while to sink in, and the lyrics are pretty direct and very passionate. I think they've basically taken all the Ash elements that work well, and taken them... Read full review »
