Review title: very disappointing
Product review: i bought this because i heard the verve compared to radiohead, spiritualized, and the my bloody valentine "shoegazing" genre, all of which i like a lot -- except for a couple of songs, it's garbage. it sounds more to me like third eye blind with brit-pop credibility. i can't wait to get rid of it.the songs appear to be written around the vocals, which are generally sappy and never anything special, and the talented musicians that are supposedly in this band don't do anything beyond formulaic. they don't even contribute to the songwriting (done almost entirely by the singer), which is perhaps why the verve broke up.maybe i should listen to their earlier albums, they must be good because how else could this band acquire such a good reputation?
