I heard Keep your head up on the radio whilst driving home (in a foul mood).
I don't usually like listening to the radio, nor do I ever like a track on first hearing it.
Neither of these were true here.
As soon as I got home, I had to make my husband find the track on the internet and listen to it whilst I went to Amazon to buy the song.
I bought the single but, was gutted to see that I'd have to wait for the album.
But, time's up and finally I could download it.
I hate to use the word catchy but, that's what happens with this music. It catches you, hooks you, gets right in there and sticks in your head.
I think this is going to be played over and over until I know every song word for word.
Fabulous.

Words cannot do this album enough justice...it really is that good and I have been waiting for a long time for it to be released.
Ben Howard is supremely talented and is surely destined for big, big things.
In a world where our ears are constantly assaulted with ever increasingly plastic, non-inspiring, formulaic produce from X-factor and other corporate arenas resulting in a chart devoid of music for the soul, and where of my generation (34) we have been lacking proper representation of talent in the folk/singer/songwriter mainstream for a long time since Damien Rice's brilliant 0; finally we have someone to draw inspiration from.
Modern music needs Ben Howard.
If you like Bon Iver, Nick Drake, Damien Rice et all, then dont even think about it...just buy it. It will warm your soul...

If you like Jose Gonzalez or Bon Iver- buy this album, it's as simple as that.
In fact, if you like good music, buy this album.
If perhaps, like me, you were dissapointed with Ed Sheran's debut- purchase this and be thoroughly satisfied...

I got this album about a week ago, and have listened to it constantly since. I was attracted to it by the song "The Wolves", I think it is the strongest track on the album,although all the other tracks are of an excellent standard, there are no fillers on this disc and I look forward to hearing more of Ben Howard in the future.

I've been following the course and progress of Ben for well over a year now & have numerous live recordings with serious playtime accumulated across my home & in the car. The album is not a let down & it's a credit to the hard work & talent this guy has to be able to compile a neat little pacakage which opens up into a plethora of recorded pleasure. This album makes me feel good to be here & now...if the opening track works for you then you won't be disappointed.

Well, it finally arrives. All those people that have been waiting for this Album will now be sat blissfully listening to what is a musical gem. A simple album, with fine guitars, a fine unique voice and a great range of tracks. The famous 'The Wolves' track is a minute and half longer than the single version and is sandwiched either side by 9 other equally beautiful tracks. Kick back and enjoy....

Ben's first album is a modern day classic, just put it on loud or play it down in the background. It has the same result, it changes your mood for the better, a really heart... Read more
