If it wasn't for the loyalty I have for the band over many years, I would be donating my copy to the local charity shop. Instead it will go on my shelf and gather dust.

The band making music they think they need to make, instead of music that feels right, results in albums likes Postcards. Forced and unpleasant.
I only got it a couple of days ago and have only listened to it 5 or 6 times so far, but i think it's great. It's got a lot of soul to it. I really like the guest vocals spread out over the album. And unlike some previous guest vox - they add a lot to the songs and are not just on it for the sake of it.
I was more looking forward to this ''European sounding album'', but this is really excellent stuff. A great return to form. Wish I'd gone to see them now. I've gone into manics mode a couple of weeks too late unfortunately.
