  Top notch (02 August 2008)
What a great album! By far and away their best, before they succumbed to Coldplay-type anthems on Seldom Seen Kid. Every track a winner, but "Very best" is well titled. Enjoy! Anyone that can get Stockport Supporters Club into the lyrics of a ballad is alright by me!!

  cracking album (12 June 2008)
What an amazing album from Elbow. It really has got the lot. Instrumentally it is fantastic, the lyrics are witty, subtly clever. Just a great listen that improves with regular listens. Definitely an album to listen to from start to finish. You really need all the tracks, so if you're thinking of downloading just a couple of songs please think again.


  A year or so on. (24 October 2007)
Great expectations is the greatest song ever written. Given that I love Elliott Smith it's hard for me to admit, but it washes over and stirrs the emotions like no other. An album of sheer brilliance.

  Bury's finest since black pudding. (18 July 2007)
After the anthemic Red, powder blue and newborn from Asleep in the back fugitive motel and crawling with idiots from Cast of thousands,i found L.O.T.F.W to be a slower album, but it is a grower, and more often than not, they end up being your favourites.

In my opinion, I am Kloot, Puressence and Elbow are the finest bands of the last 10 years to originate from the North West of this septic isle.

  "These feelings belong in a zoo..." (08 June 2007)
I don't know how to do this album justice. It is breathtakingly beautiful, with Mr Garvey seemingly effortlessly finding poetry in the everyday. Finding the cast of a wedding ceremony on the last bus home (great expectations), giving the best description of a bouncer you'll ever hear (forget myself) or drunkenly falling for a random girl in a bar (imagined affair). The whole album feels like a story and its one I don't tire of. I can't recommend it highly enough.
