One to Watch 2 May 2010
Format:Audio CD
I remember these guys opening V Festival in 2006 after winning the Road to V competition, but it wasn't until 'Always Like This' was highlighted in Metro's singles of the week (with the review 'if you don't dance to this, you have no feet') that I checked them out again. Very glad I did - apart from the aforementioned single and debut single 'Evening/Morning' (both with incredible riffs), there are some truly standout classics here, including 'Lamplight', 'Magnet' and near-anthemic 'What If'. Overall, it's a remarkably polished effort for a debut, and from a band so young. Now they've won NME's Best New Band Award - previously won by MGMT, Arctic Monkeys, Kings of Leon, The Libertines, Coldplay, Muse, and The Strokes - it's definitely worth checking them out sooner rather than later.

Album of the year ? 1 Feb 2010
Format:Audio CD
Loving this lately - probably my favourite album of 2009 (only maybe The XX can top it) for this ageing listener. The vocalist is a bit of an acquired taste but other than that this does some pretty inventive things within the potentially stale indie rock field. Reminds me of British Sea Power (without the delightfully strange lyrics) more than anybody else. Nice unfussy production lets the music shine through. Highly recommended.

...but in my opinion 18 Nov 2009
By J. S. Meins VINE™ VOICE
Format:Audio CD
When The Strokes arrived on our beaches eight years ago they came soaked in original indie Old Spice; jaggedy songs played by skinny jeans and smelly second hand leather jackets beamed to the noughties direct from their 70's inspired late 80's heyday.
Bombay Bicycle Club seem to have popped into reality from the same ultra-cool wormhole; looking impossibly young and sounding as fresh as only the impossibly young can sound. Jack Steadman has a voice that will - like Dave Gedge and Morrissey before him - alienate some and impassion others, but it absolutely suits BBC's sound; original but with a taste of the old masters (to these ears Television, Joy Division, Blur, Arcade Fire and - on occasion - even Aphex Twin). "I Had The Blues But I Shook Them Loose" is a perfect album in that it is almost impossible to single out specific tracks as they exist as a whole...no fillers and each a potential highlight in their own right. Joyous and melancholy...I think I've fallen in love.

Understatedly Awesome
One if the best new sounds I've heard. Fantastic. I wouldn't be disappointed if this got stuckin the cd player & was all I could listen to! Do yourself a favour and get it.

Indie-by-numbers - total rubbish
I've seen this band on various TV shows - mainly festival stuff. I got the impression that they were a delicate and subtle bunch of folk-tinged indie song-smiths with a slightly... Read more

More good out of Crouch End
We caught them on TV from Glastonbury and are glad to meet these young men on disc. Their style is infectious and I hope they come to the prominence they deserve.

Easily one of the best albums of 2009
As there are already many reviews on the CD format for this item, I'll keep it brief by simply saying this is a phenomenal collection of indie music and a brilliant debut album. Read more

Bombay Bicycle Club first album
I heard Bombay Bicycle club on a link from Noah and the Whales on the internet so bought this. I have to say It's not initially as good as there second album but it grows on you.
