Nice reading the positive feedback from both of you. I hadn’t thought about the Oasis comparison, at least on “Lifestyle.”

I am extremely excited to listen to this album. I was impressed with ‘Home’ last month. Celtic influences nearly always rest well with me.

Great review on one of your favorite bands. I’m sure this wasn’t an easy one to write.

“Lifestyle” might have been on ‘Definitely Maybe’ from Oasis. Perhaps, right?

Excellent review that captures the sonic excellence and oddly joyous introversion of the album tremendously. Arm in Arm is a genuine tour de force and as ever, Amsterdam raise the bar to another level. In my view the album has cohesive qualities that were not necessarily present on The Journey - great collection of songs but lacked (for my money) the album feel of Arm in Arm.

I understand REM have returned to form with Accelerate and I keenly await James’ new offering; however, both acts will struggle to better this masterpiece and I’m not sure a bigger compliment can be paid.

12 / 10.
