8 Strong first few songs. Atmospheric. But the middle of the album gets muddled and samey. Ends on a high, with "Glory Box", but my favourite was "Sour Times". More of a background album than a headphones album.

8 Thoroughly enjoyable folk-rock with wonderful harmonies. Best track: "Helplessly Hoping" Mellow. Melodic. Reflective.

4 This really doesn't do anything for me. "Passenger" is probably the best of the bunch, but all of it's very pedestrian. Lyrics and instrumentation are pretty uninspired. Also has the goofiest album cover that it no way fits the vibe of the music.

7 Moody, broody synthpop fun. Best track: "Policy of Truth"

5 None of the covers trumped the originals for me.

7 Simple, yet effective.

8 4th July poignant simple yet poetic and effective Put me on top is lyrically weak Like music on say anything, more upbeat, great bit of electric guitar Poetry of Jacob marley
