Three mega tracks but otherwise poorer than the debut in every regard

I am on world music tilt at the minute anyway, so this is hitting fantastically well

Surprisingly, I enjoyed this

That first side is one of the best pop albums of the 2010s, doesn't stick the landing, but that's not to say this is any less than a great record

Too weird and unrefined to enjoy intensely, too talented and full of ideas to dismiss entirely

Title track is a worldie but patchwork doesn't cover the rest

The concept is half baked, at least if you're experiencing this album without a physical edition - the execution is fair - this is the wrong Barry Adamson album.

Oh it's so british

More innovative than influential - some really interesting parts, and some not even reaching meh levels

Cool, in every sense

Very good!

Suitable title, poor man's Village Green or Arthur

Dreaded this coming up after hating felt mountain but quite liked this

Late career gem, but inferior to his early work

Greatly enjoyed

I am too dejected by England's capitulation to Argentina to enjoy this, but I feel like it was sub par anyway

Bit like de la soul, but a bit less refined? Enjoyed it

Nothing of note here, boring and unenjoyable

A fairly decent record

I cleaned my barbecue to this, it was below par
