On first blush, it seems like essentially early Richard solo backed by Verve, which is…uh. But the final tracks go a long way to make up for that, happily.

I’m somewhat surprised I really like it based on Richard’s solo output. It gets better with each listen.

I thought that first song was so boring it made me want to cry, which was great because Sirius decided to play it once an hour, every hour, on a road trip I was on.

“Sit & Wonder” as well as “Noise Epic” are amazing tracks in my opinion. I think “S&W” is as close to an “Urban Hymns” track as we could possibly want.

I will hear it tonight — and cross my fingers.

I really like the artwork, but I know it can’t be as psychedelic as I need Verve to be.

I’ve heard the lead single, which I like, but I actually pre-ordered this because it’s, you know, a new Verve album.

@Big Gray.: To the contrary, I quite liked "Love is Noise".

I think that new song stinks.
