    This album is absolutly amazing. The guys are sooooo talented and the album is sensational. Not many albums you can listen to over and over again in one go and not get bored, this is an exception! You must buy it!!

    As other reviewers have pointed out, this album doesn't break any new musical ground. Rather, The Script fall firmly amongst a host of current rock-pop favourites - think Maroon 5, Keene, The Fray, Snow Patrol, Coldplay etc

    If you find such bands too polished and 'bland', then this album probably isn't for you. But if you like well-crafted, polished and melodic songs, toe-tapping riffs, some nice harmonies, the occasional thumping piano and some nice guitar licks, then this won't disappoint. An enjoyable and accessible debut...



    4 out of 5 stars Interesting sound   November 25, 2008

    Purchased this album out of curiosity having seen them on MTV and was very pleasantly surprised. The sound is good mellow soul, a bit similar to Orson and certainly different to the current all out rock trend. Well worth a go.

    Once in a while a band springs into popular consciousness fully formed and dripping with talent. The Script are one such. Great voice, excellent drumming; songwriting, playing and arranging all of high quality. Other commentators have drawn parallels with John Mayer, Coldplay, Paolo Nutini and Sting, and they are not too wide of the mark. Interestingly, those comparisons are intended to highlight an unease over originality, but a common thread is also that these artists are so adept at what they do, many people find them annoying.

    I was unmoved by debut single "We Cry" - they evidently listen to a lot more hip hop/R n B or whatever you'd call it than I do. The album leads off with that song, but then there follows a straight run of 5 hook-laden pop songs that certainly justify the price of admission, from Before the Worst to Rusty Halo (something in the voice in that one reminds me of nothing more than `80's Aussies Men at Work!). The Man Who Can't Be Moved is the song that changed my mind - "self-pitying toss", another reviewer called it, a label encompassing some 80% of pop music. Lyrically, it doesn't bear too close an inspection - the guy is more likely to get a restraining order than a reconciliation. But, it's touching in its way, and as catchy as hell. Weakest track is "If You See Kay" - just an excuse for a naughty acronym.

    It all may pall eventually, but for now, it's glued to the cd player.



    5 out of 5 stars FANTASTIC!   October 30, 2008

    I got this album 2 days ago and have not stopped playing it. There is not 1 track on there that I don't like. Danny's voice is amazing especially in the beautiful 'I'm Yours', I found that track so moving. I highly recommend that you buy this album. I don't think you'll be disappointed as I absolutely love it!
