"May21. Over two years after this was out, so let's see what I think. In that time I have added the title track, 'The One You Know' and 'Never fade' to my 2018 H100 lists. I remember thinking that the album lacked variety and I did not like as much as previous albums. But it also took time for me ..."  [+]  Reply

"Aug19. These guys have been coming up a lot on my YouTube playlists lately. The first 2 songs are pretty good, then comes 'She's Kerosene' which is a brilliant song. This is certainly ska I can listen to over and over. 'Got Each Other' (with Rancid) is good, of course. Everyone has a go at vocals..."  [+]  Reply

""Indigo" is an ethereal experience. Even better than "Nocturne" from 2012. 11 powerful songs perfectly arranged with great sound quality. My favorite tracks are "Letting Go" and "Through Windows"."  Reply
