Product Description

BBC Review

In the wake of the NME Awards 09, Best New Band winners MGMT could do worse than look to their predecessors. Eight years ago, Starsailor picked up 'Brightest New Hope' - and now they're stepping back into the spotlight with cracking new fourth album.

The band say the disc - on which they reunite with Steve Osbourne, who produced their debut - is the result of all the good and bad experiences since 2001. Well there's certainly a lot more light amongst the trademark dirges we've come to know and love.

It's been three years since On The Outside was released, but they've not exactly been sitting around. They've shifted labels (to Virgin, acquired by their original label EMI) and racked up a hefty amount of touring, supporting the Rolling Stones, The Police, U2 and The Killers.

Some of those heavyweights have pitched in on the new album - Ronnie Wood joined one recording session and appears on a version of the title track released as part of first single, Tell Me It's Not Over.

Indeed eagle-eyed fans may even have spotted a leaked version of the first single featuring Brandon Flowers. Though the final version of the track has no sign of the Killer's frontman, it's still a surefire hit. It's a soaring epic which could be mistaken for Keane until James Walsh's distinctive vocals kick in.

The Thames echoes the spaghetti western style favoured by The Last Shadow Puppets - a pared-down version makes a success of Stars And Stripes. Neon Sky is bound to be a hit with long-term fans, with its lamenting melody and soaring guitars. Ditto Hurts Too Much. Safe At Home is also a gem, with haunting vocals laid delicately over steel guitar.

On their official website, the band say they've matured a lot since the fresh-out-of-college teens who penned Love Is Here, and though All The Plans doesn't step out of their comfort zone, their experience is evident. Full of deep lyrics and intricate melodies, surges and ebbs, highs and lows - this is unthreatening music for the moment. --Sophie Bruce

4.0 out of 5 stars Starsailor are back at last. 8 Mar 2009
By Toby Tyke
Format:Audio CD
Long over due new album, but worth the wait. They are back to their best with echoes of their first album Love Is Here. It is worth buying the 2 disc special for the acoustic versions plus a new track.
Like Coldplay and Keane only much better.

5.0 out of 5 stars Return of one of Britain's best bands 21 Mar 2009
By Rita D
Format:Audio CD
All The PlansI am so pleased that Starsailor are back true to form. All the songs on this album are melodious - a mix of fast, slow, thought-provoking but always crisp and arresting (I can hear some Dylan and Cash influences in some of the songs). I think James' lead vocals are the best Britain has to offer at the moment. I do have time for Coldplay, Keane, Snow Patrol etc but I have to say Starsailor have always shone more brightly for me. I can't wait to see them live in a couple of weeks on the back of this album release (last time I saw Starsailor live James was suffering a sore throat but his voice somehow still belted out magnificently). I highly recommend this short but so sweet album - love it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Stylish Return 8 April 2009
By Carter
Format:Audio CD
I have to agree with the other reviewers here and say how much I like this album. It has a real sense of maturity, hangs together really well and gets better on every play. No particular favourite tracks, I like them all! Bonus CD is well worth getting, with some outstanding accoustic versions of the album tracks.

Nothing wrong with this album - easy to listen to (not in a radio two way honestly) but it didn't move me like their earlier work.
