Reception[edit]
Reviews in both Britain and America have been mixed. Indie blog Treble called the album "a powerful and thoughtful first release from a genuinely talented quartet of musicians".[2] Another music blog, Drowned in Sound, went so far as to say "with their debut album being so patchy, they may not be given the chance [to succeed]".[3] Their song "Facing the Sun", and its accompanying music video, had almost universally positive reviews, as the Guardian said "the sense of joy summoned forth by the singing and music [in Facing the Sun] seemed almost preternaturally, lysergically determined".[4]
