Impressed with this after one listen, like the way the new songs generallly sound like fresh territory for him too. Listen #2 on an actual stereo coming shortly. The lyrics on White Privilege are brilliantly scathing! Wasn't expecting him to actually drop the C-bomb on this.

Also, this interview is fantastic.

Just hearing this now. I had no idea he sounded as much like The Killers as he did!

Okay this sounds excellent on Tidal Hi-Fi via my stereo. The Borders is phenomenal in album context. Love the urgency! This song is VERY Springsteen/Killers/War on Drugs but that's not a bad thing at all. Even though I'm more of a singles guy, I can see me going back to this repeatedly. The best act to come out of this part of the world in a long time.

I'm pretty impressed with the album on a first listen. The Bandon Flowers / Springsteen comparisons are very real. I'd thought the same about some of his songs before the album came out. As The Killers' second album was very Springsteen-esque, the similarity to both is understandable.

Will We Talk? has climbed up to #58 this week - now making it his highest charting single! The Borders has also entered at #94 - very good for an almost 6 minute track.

I've just started my first listen of the album smile.gif

‘Will We Talk’ becomes his highest charting single climbing to #58 today - hopefully it can go Top 40 next week, and pleased to see ‘The Boarders’ has snuck in at #94.

WWT at #11 on iTunes yahoo.gif Really hope it goes Top 10 on there to give it and the album some extra exposure.

Also the album is now #1 and #2 on Amazon - can’t wait to see the first sales update.

It's top 10 now - good 59p reduction helping it. If Graham Norton was back he coulda had a release week performance sad.gif

I thought this would really struggle on streaming but it’s #2 on Apple and 3 songs are in their Top 100 tracks chart.

Gutted he couldn't get a Top 40 single but great to see the album smashing it. Suppose he doesn't sing enough lovesick ballads to be a big singles artist. Nonetheless, three top sixty singles isn't to be sniffed at in this climate. I can't see me tiring of this album for a long time, he's making my stat-based personal chart a nightmare to compile! I hope he has a long and glorious career.

I was a big fan of those early singles that didn't make the cut so I've made myself a little fake Hypersonic Missiles (Deluxe Edition). Dead Boys has its cinematic long intro back!

I've been getting into this album so much these last few days. It's really, REALLY good. So much more interesting than the bog standard British male singer-songwriter tripe we're usually known for.

'White Privilege' really deserves to go viral. wub.gif

Including Alexandria Palace! The next step up from that is Wembley Arena - which I could definitely see him doing with the next album.
