This is NOT an Alarm album
06/29/2004
(4 out of 5 stars)

"Does it bother anyone that this isn't an Alarm album? It's essentially a Mike Peters solo record. Don't get me wrong - it sounds good but it's MP and 3 other dudes ... none of whom were ever in The Alarm.Therefore, it bugs me to hear how "The Alarm are back." or "This is the first Alarm album in over a decade."I'm afraid not. But it sounds good. = )"
A musical return of Passion and emotion!
Alison Smale | Aberdare, Wales | 06/10/2004
(5 out of 5 stars)

"In music I crave for 3 things, passion, emotion, and tune! When playing "In the poppy fields", we are blessed with all 3 of the above. An Alarm album is has always been an emotional rollercoaster of passion, and after 10 years it's nice to see that Mike Peters has not lost his touch! With Eddie, Dave and Twist all gone, the new line up features such people as Craig Adams(The Mission), and Steve Grantley(Stiff little fingers). Straight away one can notice that Peters is gelling well with his new Alarm members! Songs such as 45 rpm, Drunk and Disordely and Federal Motor Voter quickly grab you with their catchy vocals and grinding guitars. Whilst songs such as Close and New Home New Life are truly fantastic songs that could easily become world wide hits! The Unexplanned perfectly takes the album to a more darker side, whilst songs such as The Rock and Roll and Coming home show a more uplifting side. Thank F**K the Alarm are back in town! TRULY AMAZING STUFF!"
