4.0 out of 5 stars back to form, 10 April 2007
By Tommy Cockles (Manchester, England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: No Need to be Downhearted (Audio CD)
I have to say i loved their 1st album,it was like listening to all your favourite songs and it hit you immediately. The American Adventure was their attempt to be more mature and suffered a little in comparison though it is still a very good album.However No Need To Be Downhearted is a return to form with a mixture ofuptempo and slow stuff, but all have the panache of Holes In The Wall.

Standout tracks fo me are( in no particular order),

Come Back Inside
Cold World( also on The Human Body )
Misunderstanding
If thats the case, then i dont know
Have you ever felt like its too late
Appropriate ending

The music sounds will sound even better on your mp3 player as you get to hear all the sounds going on in the background much more clearly.

All in all this a fabulous cd and I can only hope they get the success they so richly deserve with it, but sadly as is the case with Teenage Fanclub I have a feeling it wont happen. You get the impression though that they dont mind if they don't which to me is a refreshing change from all the showy and image led stuff that appears now.

5.0 out of 5 stars Welcome back, 12 May 2007

Although I quite enjoyed ESP's collaboration with Brakes, this album sees them back to what they do best - rich, melodic, imaginative, indie rock. It reminds me of the Beatles at their best and you can't say better than that.

4.0 out of 5 stars Back on form, 30 Sep 2007
By Ag Man (Hertfordshire, England) - See all my reviews
If you were disappointed by 'An American Adventure', give this one a listen. They've repeated the wide-screen sound and ambition, but this time with great tunes to match. Not as good as 'Holes' (nothing could be), but a vast improvement on their last outing. A second dud on the trot could have spelled the end for ESP, but the boys have come up trumps with NNTBD.

The ESP seem to have been largely forgotten by a lot of people after their Mercury-nominated debut a few years back, but I can't for the life of me figure out why. Read more
