I love it!! It's so unexpected, but still very Keane... I think they're evolving, doing different things and not staying in the old same melodies, still keeping their essence... Great album!! well done guys!!

Filled with songs written with a new sense of excitement and incredible intensity. They are still the Keane we've come to love just with new moves and more experience.

I must admit... Keane continues to impress me. Although i still believe that their first album, "Hopes and Fears" is their best, i cant help but be impressed with their last 2 releases. Lead singer Tom Chaplin is absolutely brilliant. His ability to create incredible lyrics, is a talent that is really confined to a few bands like Radiohead. It is also incredible how smooth and flawless his voice is. Keane is a band that has stayed completely original... Even as times progress and music changes, they have been able to change their music, but not loose that "Keane" touch. This Album is a MUST! Listen to Track 10, "Black Burning Heart" and you will be sold.

Fantastic. The sign of a truely great album is not to fully appreciate every track immediately. The depth of great albums comes from listening from start to finish, multiple times in a variety of settings. There are a number of great singles, but the further development of exceptional song crafting and gathering a "sonically" pure collection has been obtained. Looping and cavernous melodies coupled with a tasteful 80's feel creates a metallic yet velvet album. Balanced in Perfect Symmetry.

"James"... they sound like "James" and that's a good thing. That's a very good thing.
