Not as brill as their last album but still some great tracks on it such as Hem On Her Dress :wub: Disappointed on the whole tho.

The album debuted at #3 in the UK this week!

 

 

This album has some nice folk elements to it.

On a side note, am I the only one who thinks Fireworks reminds me of the Ed Sheeran song Perfect, since both songs are in Ab major, as well as having a smooth triplet rhythm similar to that of Unchained Melody)

It's generally good but wasn't a big surprise. I felt like they decided to stick more to some visual part sticking to that retro style. Though I love Johanna's vocal parts in Fireworks. True revelation
