ROTT gets 5 out of 5 in new HEAT magazine !!!!!

[stinky]

Out today.
VERY positive review! Says things like:

Number of good tracks: 11 out of 12
Best = Dear God...; one of the most beautiful thing he's ever done.
Worst = On The Streets...; should've been a B-side.

Overall: 5 stars out of 5

Heat is bought by lots of people, so this should be great for sales of the album.

I have to disagree with them on the worst track being "On The Streets I Ran", i think it is pretty nifty

The Daily Telegraph had a fantastic review of ROTT too. Does anyone know what NME said?

 

[thanks]

On the streets I ran, is sadly quite tuneless. The rest of the album is very good though.

NME gave it an 8, the same as they gave for Quarry. the general gist was positive, though i think that, like many, they were questioning how much of a musical departure the arrangements really are. Someone posted a link on here last week and, i think, on the main board, so the review should be around if you trawl the archives.
Brilliant that it got 5 in Heat, that'll be one in the eye for my Moz hating Heat reading workmates.
