New Mojo review
« on: August 01, 2013, 11:16:25 AM »
Great review. The 'late in the day' thing is a bit harsh though! With every new release I expectthe world to suddenly sit up and notice the finest band of the last 30 odd years. Might the new album do it?

Hi JC. It came through as a facebook link. If you can get on the NMA facebook page it's there. The album gets 4 stars and ' A late in the day career high'.

The things that you thought were so cool were just a joke to everyone else

'Frontman Justin Sullivan has finally discovered temperance and restraint' A bit harsh when you think of all the great acoustic tracks over the years and the whole 'Navigating by the Stars' album.

Forgive the reviewer, he's probably not a hardcore NMA-er, just someone who's heard the more well-known tracks and bits and bobs over the years.  Some folks still think NMA begins and ends with No Rest.

He liked it, he's recommended it to people who aren't familiar with NMA... that's good enough for me.

Fair point well put. I like the idea that even none NMA followers are liking it. A little frustrating to think there are promo copies of the album circulating the music industry at the moment, but I am content to wait till the official release date to clap my ears around it.

should have been a cover feature!
This is where we go to - to the blue of the ocean
On the 30 westbound to the diamond water
Lost out in the white waves - salt purification
Bright eyes and breathless - this is how Love feels

Ben Myers is a hardcore (American not UKHC) as I recall type of lad. Seem to think I met him at a gig I did with an old band of mine in London, X Fest i think....... So the review being that positive is good. Especially sein as the new stuff is not "guitar band in a room" type stuff that Ben would be more aux fait with.  8)

Happy days!
