The definitive versions of "Bang" "Goodbye Jumbo" and "Private Revolution" are the re-issues on the Papillon label. Sonically they blow away the previous Ensign cd's, they have much improved low end and so much more detail in the sound. Despite the fact they currently seem unavailable, keep searching - it's well worth it!

This is their best album to date, while the others are good, taking a while to get into, this is top notch. Love every track, lot of style variations, top track 'Sooner or Later'. Buy, relax, enjoy ;o)

I remember thinking when it came out that "World Party" were the UK's answer to REM... only much better.
This and their previous album "Goodbye Jumbo", I would recommend as essential purchases. The influences, such as Dylan, Prince, Beatles and Stones are obvious. However the song writing and melodies and hooks, overcome these comparisons enough to produce really original albums.
This is a grower of an album which stays in your memory, due largely to superb song writing.
And of course "Is it like Today" is one of the greatest songs of the decade.

Does what it says on the tin (arrived promptly too). First heard this in the mid-90s, and the Kuwait City song still makes the cut.

Should've bought it years ago...
I had 'Is it like today' on a compilation about 15 years ago and always intended to get the album. Finally bought it this week and it's great! Read more

Bang!
The third album from Karl Wallingers' (ex Waterboys) new band World Party (following the excellent Private Revolution and Goodbye Jumbo ) in my opinion (and I could not explain why... Read more

Bang!! Albeit fairly softly
On this, the long-awaited follow up to the much acclaimed Goodbye Jumbo, Karl Wallinger not only continues to mine a particularly tunesome 60's style trough (if you can listen to... Read more

Mature World Party
This is a great album and no mistake. It is the first mature album by World Party and my only critiscism is that perhaps the album is a little over produced. Read more

A patchy affair, but some high points.
Afflicted by the psame inconsistency in quality that has marred much of World Party's catalogue post-'Goodbye Jumbo' (though not to the extent of 'Egyptology'), this is an odd mix,... Read more
