Elbow - Leaders Of The Free WorldFriday, October 07, 2005Listening to Mexican Standoff
Buy CD for £8.95I'm loving this album at the moment, the first track is fantastic and it gets better from there on in. This is easily their best work yet, and as a life long Radiohead fan I'm happy to say Elbow are right up there with them. This album is not some miserable whiny indie record that'll sit at the top of the charts and play on yuppies in-car mp3 players. A lot of it is funky and upbeat, the title track will get people on the dance floor in any club and other tracks will move you to tears.
I strongly suggest you get the extended DVD version, there is a video to every track and quite a bit more material than the cd album (you get the cd with the dvd too). The videos have been made by a team of Manchester based artists and the visuals are outstanding. Go buy now!

Took me a few plays to get into the new album...but it now gets better the more I play it...Did you hear their cover version on Jo Whiley? it was a little gem
