I got it Thursday , gave it a listen, very good but needs to grow on me .
Ripped it to my PC this morning, then put it on my phone, and listened to it again via my Blutooth headphones whilst cycling 20 miles, and i am starting to get to know it now, and it is growing on me .

Agreed DS, just because we love the album, it doesn't mean everyone else has to, just down to personal taste i guess. I love it for it's pop sensibilities and it's proginess, along with some serious shredding ( i've always loved the tone JM gets on his guitars and always feel like i want his solo's to go on forever..The wind that shakes the barley being a perfect example ! ), and of course the guests that appear, i wouldn't say it's like marmite, as i think the people that have embraced JM into the IB fold will probably enjoy this, but i can also understand if people don't like it too. There's no right or wrong answer when it comes to musical taste. Very Happy

Personal musical taste.....It can be mental sometimes.

As I have said here a few times I still struggle with Dave Kerzners New World and I'm very much in the minority but I can live with that . I still play the album and well it just didn't live up to my expectations I guess.

Lonely Robot on the other hand has the It Bites,Kino,Frost influences and is almost Wilsonesque in places,plus as has been said here before JMs guitar work is special.As a debut album I still say its a cracking piece of work.

It's definitely growing on me as a record though - that's usually a good sign for future listening.
