Customer Reviews
OCS - absolutely superb.
This record was put out in April 2007 and for me, has to be their 3rd best album after Moseley Shoals and NAD. I was fortunate enough to meet the band at their album launch last year and they are fantastic lads. This album for me will be played in 20 years time and songs like, Go to Sea, Mr Brown, Man in the Middle and the title track will still sound fantastic. This band are the most underrated in Great Britain but should be given a chance by anybody who appreciates real music. This is a cracking album. They are also the finest live band I have seen and having been together for 19 years, they certainly deserve some recognition.
Disapointing
While I have tried to like this album, I just cant.
Theres no real substance to the vast majority of this album, and it at times feels like OCS have lost thier way a little bit. The paths which have been treaded here are well worn. It seems that Damon Minchella may well have left the band just at the right time. Before they headed off on the downslope.
True there are some highlights like the first track and the Paul Weller penned third track (I think its third). But the rest is simply un-memorable.
In the end, even I am a little tired of OCS
Firstly, I would like to say that I am a huge Ocean Colour Scene fan, and they are one of my all time favourite bands. But I'm afraid here is where I draw the line. This album is uninspired and quite boring. There are no songs on here which would have been a single off any previous OCS album except maybe their self titled debut. The lead single I Told You So is the only one which provides any sort of break to this, but to be honest it is almost as far from The Circle as a Girls Aloud single.
It is still Ocean Colour Scene and so is a relaxing listen, but there is nothing on here to inspire any emotional impact or musical excitement.
If you are interested in Ocean Colour Scene, you may want this to complete a collection, but otherwise look to any of their previous albums and not here.
