Thank Goodness they are back
Such beautiful music, Crowded House have been always easy to listen to and this new album 10 years after the 'FINAL CONCERT at The Sydney Opera House" is a very welcome relief. How wonderful is this album...I love it! Highly reccomended.

Disappointing Time on Earht
After 30 years of avidly following the Enz/Crowded house and The Finn Brothers, I never thought I would be saying that a Crowded House album was boring, and sadly, apart from a couple of numbers I feel it is. As a guitarist myself, I can genuinely say that some of Finns structural and melody work falls into 'genious territory'. Earlier songs such as 'Whispers & Moans', ' Never Be the Same' (In my opinion, one of the most perfect songs ever written for guitar), In the Lowlands'......the list goes on, but this offering is 'too acoustic', and many songs are disjointed and lack 'hooks'.
Finns' pent-up frustration caused by the antics of the very sadly missed Paul Hester gave him some release in many of his former songs; some with venom, others with frustration and disguised lyrics; but many of us that have closely followed his work will know the target of his lyrics in many instances.
Who knows it may grow on me, but I haven't played again it since the day I bought it; I was that disappointed.

Still Going Strong
Album out in southern hemisphere! Bloody awesome, these guys are still sounding better then ever! Worth the buck, and if you can catch them live, then don't miss the opportunity! Good classic sounds with mix of modern day beats!
