Bought it today after watching the videos the past couple of months, so have had a chance to listen to the album in full a couple of times.
I like the musical element of the opening track, but I'm just not a fan of spoken word songs and would have probably rather it just be an instrumental with the chant like chorus really, but I guess it's something a bit different.
Then there's the block of songs that have already been released which I've enjoyed listening to over the past few months. Having done that though, it's a bit strange to hear them all together on an album. Really like Deleted Scenes, but just not really getting that much from the rest of the album just yet. There just seems a bit of a lull in the middle part, which needs a bit of energy injecting into it.
It might change, but at the moment I'm not sure I could see any of these songs being on a set list in a couple of years time to be honest. In fact, I can't really see anything from the last three albums making it (although for me International Blue should be a staple!).
