2010, This album contains a welcomed, warm and upbeat mix of rock, hints of electronica, and a collection of song ideas which - whilst at times seem frightened to fully expand into what they could be - are bristling with some ´good old` Stereophonics flare. It's an album that builds in quality - much like their second album PERFORMANCE AND COCKTAILS, with some of its most interesting and intriguing moments coming over half way through. Stand out songs are ,,100mph", the single ,,Innocent", ,,Trouble" and the last track ,,Show Me How" is possibly Jones most honest piece of songwriting to date. This album almost feels like a culmination of what-could-have-been after 2001's JEEP. Sharp, swift moving, and rarely laboured - the sonic feel of this record is ´Nu-Phonics`. And a very nice change it makes too.
