For me, Andy & Gem both contributed stinkers (Kill For A Dream & Wind Up Dream) but I love all of Liam's tunes.
Liam FTW.

"In the style of Beady Eye"
It's also on Spotify if you want to sing along!

1. Four Letter Word – I fucking love it. Angry, purposeful, catchy, doesn't really sound like anything else and half-decent lyrics. A true classic. Up there with almost any Oasis song, truly. 10/10 2. Millionaire - Nice, meandering melody. Very pleasant indeed. 7/10 3. The Roller - Grown on me so much. Yes, it's very derivative but it somehow sounds fresh and effortless. 8/10 4. Beatles and Stones - I feel like I should hate this, sometimes I do, but it barrels along, sticks in my head and I don't mind it doing so. 6/10 5. Wind Up Dream - Kinda annoying, incredibly average.5/10 6. Bring The Light - Love it, don't give a shit what anyone says. 8/10 7. For Anyone - Simple as anything but I think it's very sweet and does't outstay its welcome. 8/10 8. Kill For A Dream - Cheesy but stays just the right side of mawkish. Reminds me of Keep The Dream Alive, which I adore. 7/10 9. Standing on the Edge of Noise - Gone off this a bit. Sounds a bit uninspired and forced, still decent I guess. Should be great live though. 6/10 10 Wigwam - The climax feels a bit tacked on but all in all I enjoy this tune quite a lot 7/10 11. Three Ring Circus - Grating. 4/10 12. The Beat Goes On - Lovely. Not quite as amazing to me as a lot of people seem to think it is, but I could listen to it all day. 8/10 13. The Morning Son - Big fan of this. Love the vocals, Liam sings differently somehow, and for me, it works. Bit of a rip off of Looking Glass but not to the extent where it hampers my love of the song. 8.5/10 All in all, 7/10 for the album. Some really top moments, a handful of blinding tunes and a little too much blatant magpiery (but hey, Radiohead owe the latter part of their career to Warp Records and we dont see anyone go on about that too much ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) ). About what I expected. Can't wait for the Troxy. ![:-/](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/undecided.png)

I'm a saaaaad panda that Wind-Up Dream is getting knocked so much. It's a decent mid-album rocker, i reckon.
Anyway, i'm glad to say i was wrong in my first impressions of this record. A 3 star jobby, i'd say. A couple tracks too long, and the tracklisting is all over the shop, but there's some cracking tunes in there. The only two i can't really stand are Beatles and Stones, and Kill For A Dream so i'd have lopped them off, but otherwise, a decent effort.

It's not breathtaking but it's fun. 6/10. World Outside My Room as the last track would have pushed it to a 7. Favourite track is probably The Morning Son despite having a few trite lines (he's in my soul, he's even in my rock and roll ![:o](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/shocked.png) ). Anything but that rhyme ffs. Still, I love the "you're blinded by what you idolise" bit, I'm not quite sure what it means yet but it's a great line.

wind up dream is a solid album track, doesn't overstay its welcome, the harmonica, the guitar intro.. it should be getting more props. c'mon people!! not everything has to be stand alone single
Kill For a Dream = should have been a b-side..
