What an album! I bought a copy before Xmas from market place for £3!!!!! I haven't stopped listening to it yet!
I had first seen the 'tones live in '97 and they were great! They simply are the most underrated band of our time. For those in any doubt get this album or go see them live!

Format:Audio CD
Following the slightly iffy meanderings of ... Last Chance Saloon, Science & Nature finds the Bluetones back doing what they do best - mixing pop rock listenability with smart lyrics, catchy tunes and just a pinch of heavier guitar strumming to dampen the sweetness of Mark Morris' sugary voice. There's clearly some slick production gone into many of the tunes here, and old and new vibes are fused fairly seamlessly into a competent whole. The result is a varied, splendidly entertaining CD that would benefit even more from having a bit more vigour to stir up some of the calmer tracks. Nevertheless, it's high quality stuff, and deserved to be plugged more than it was at the time of release.

I don't own any other Bluetones albums, and only know a handful of songs which aren't on this album, so I can't compare it to other stuff. All I can do is tell you about this album, and it's pretty damned good.
Two of the singles, Keep The Home Fires Burning and Autophilia, are still my favourite tracks, but throughout the album Mark Morriss' distictive vocals soar out in melody driven music which is generally delightful on the ears. It's hard not to like Last Of The Great Navigators and Tiger Lilly, and the closing Emily's Pine is beautiful.
This is one of those albums you get that you can't really fault. There are no 'bad' tracks on it, only ones that are 'less good' than the best ones. And so I would recommend it to you. It's hard to think of comparable artists, as The Bluetones have a distinctive sound (perhaps mostly due to their singer's voice), and this album sticks in my mind so much as an invdividual record.

OK - verging on bland
I am reviewing this several weeks after purchasing. To be honest I could not remember any of the music from this album, so had to go back to iTunes to sample the tracks. Read more

A good album that was criminallt ignored on release.
Far more laid back that last chance saloon and more varied than expecting to fly, science and nature is a little eclectic. Read more

There only album as a 5 piece and the additional member (Keyboards) shows with a few minor nuances. More gentle and laidback than their previous two albums but still showcasing... Read more

An uncommon stumble
I love the Bluetones. I should make that clear. Expecting to Fly is, in my opinion the best album of the so-called "britpop" era. Read more

Never heard of the bluetones until I saw them in support
I went to see the Beautiful South where the bluetones were supporting. After this I went and bought a few of their albums. Science and Nature is excellent. Read more

Excellent blend of songs
I've owned this CD for a few months now and absolutely love it. It is a very impressive collection of songs - each different but still forming a very distinctive sound. Read more
