Fourth

NME's review read: ‘Forth’ is greater than either a tentative first step or a mechanical consolidation by a band on the gravy train. It may not be as smooth a mix as the band’s classic album ‘A Northern Soul’, yet the mix of Ashcroft’s balladeering and The Verve’s more experimental instincts compares well with ‘Urban Hymns’, while ‘Sit And Wonder’ alone justifies a second reunion. But ‘Forth’ is also so much more. This album is probably the most solid foundation this quartet have had in 15 years, and it would be a disaster if it wasn’t a springboard for several more (8/10). I personally ain't that big a fan of this album, nor the band to be honest. Their monotonous festival anthems such as "Bitter Sweet Symphony" and "The Drugs Don't Work" are more than enough for me (5/10)... JT
