Format:Audio CD
This album is upbeat, catchy, and above all oozes quality. The slow-building 'Never Going Nowhere' is one of their finest accomplishments since the likes of 'Slight Return' or 'If', with the demonic-sounding 'Turn It Up' and the cheeky 'You're No Fun Anymore' being my other big favourites. It is a consistently great record, with no tracks standing out as obvious fillers, easily playable from beginning to end.
It should be noted that this offering from the Bluetones has a different feel to their earlier work. It is heavier, meatier; it's an album to drive along to. The lyrics remain as witty as ever, yet the sound is firmer, the guitars louder, all feeling more precise and multi-layered than before.
Whilst their first album, `Expecting To Fly' is a seminal part of the 1990's Britpop canon, containing, ultimately, their best tracks, I would nonetheless still rate `Luxembourg' as my favourite. As a complete package it is a funky, clever, upbeat listen; with a distinctive style that runs throughout. I highly recommend this.

If this album had been released by a new, upcoming band, they would have been rightly acclaimed as the saviours of British music. So why has the album received such mixed reviews? Simple- the Bluetones just aren't fashionable enough to be welcomed in a world dominated by Girls Aloud and the White Stripes. The Bluetones have always been excellent at spinning a fantastic tune (think If, Bluetonic, Zorrro, Solomon Bites the Worm, etc.), and although this album has been described as 'completely different', anyone who rates decent guitar pop will find that this album delivers. Yes, it has an edgier and occasionally electronic feel, but retains the Bluetones' knack of sticking a tune in your head which will remain there for days. 'Here it Comes Again', 'Turn it Up' and 'Big Problem' are simply superb pop songs (and, incidentally, its about time we reclaimed the word 'pop' from the likes of S Club and Gareth Gates- don't forget the Beatles were 'pop'), while 'You're no Fun Anymore' and 'Little Bear' get better with every listen. But the best song on the album is the soon-to-be-single-of-the-year 'Never Going Nowhere'. In any sane, decent country, this simply superb song would be a contender for number 1, but will in fact be doing well to trouble the lower echelons of the top 40. A shame, as the track is worth the price of the album on its own. The Bluetones are to be congratulated on another fine pop album, and on reminding us that quality will always transcend fashion. Why not ignore the critics and give it a try? You might just remember why you bought that copy of 'Slight Return'.

By rights the Bluetones shouldn't have survived the fall of Britpop, but it's the quality of the songs that keeps them with us. 10 songs, 34 minutes, no messing about. Not a ballad or acoustic guitar in sight, just great riffs and rhythms and witty lyrics. A great fun guitar pop album.

Stripped down and ready to play
This album slipped out of nowhere and sadly wlimped away while no one was looking. Which is a great shame as many people are missing out. Read more

After the laidback sound of "Science..." The Bluetones return back to being a four piece with a tighter more compact album. Read more

A fine little album
It's sad that this album seems likely to be largely underrated by many. The Bluetones are a good band who unfortunately seem unable to inspire much more than apathy from the record... Read more

Excellent new album by a classic unrated band!
The bluetones release the Luxembourg album in the middle of an excellent multi million date uk tour. The tour takes the bluetones back to many small venues not played in years. Read more
