"A decent follow up to, the seldom seen kid, but that's it for me. It's all very competent and well done, but there's certainly no surprises here. It's what you would expect from Elbow, but I want it all to be less predictable. Still, it's a decent record, just not that interesting." Reply

"I like this album but am not as positive as some of the comments.

"I was stunned how low this album ranked. We need more KOL fans to find this site because this album is awesome. KOL are one of my favorite bands and I have no problem agreeing with the people above that this is their best work. The fact that Only By The Night is ranked as their best album on this..." [+] Reply
