We have only had one Verve album on the List so far, and I remember thinking they were like Oasis with a little more of an edge. Still true.

There were some really good standout tracks in this album. "Lucky Man" and "Bittersweet Symphony" in particular were brilliant. The rest of the album isn't quite so memorable, but the songs never dipped below "pretty good" in quality.

I also really like the main vocals, which were thankfully devoid of whininess. 

RATING: 4/5
