I feel a 4/5 is a very safe review for this album. Seems like reviewers are being exceptionally cautious and intentionally not raising the bar a bit further. I'm very eager to see how The Telegraph reviews this album. They love Oasis/Noel, gave NGHFB 5/5. COME ON, LET'S BE 'AVIN YA!! You'll be disappointed to learn The Telegraph gave CY a 3/5 OUCH! dafaq? The written review itself was lackluster.

I think Neil McCormick did NGHFB review for the Telegraph, it wasn't him that reviewed CY.

Why is there such a discrepancy between the reviews and the fanbase (our) opinions? Too many disappointingly average (3/5) reviews coming in.

Slightly higher than the 5.7 HFB's got. So close to a 3/5. Which would have been an excellent score.

Any reviewer or publication that gives this album a lower score than NGHFB either needs to increase this score or reduce the score for NGHFB because there is simply no way CY is worse than NGHFB.

Good to see how well it's been receieved by respected media. The best thing of all though is that it's highly thought of by the fans, or majority of. Great album.

3.5 stars and quite positive review in Rolling Stone USA. It is not online but a friend bought the digital March issue at Zinio and let me read it. I will try to get a photo tomorrow. TDOTL is the highlight song I have a PDF with the review but I am unable to upload it even though it is 430 Kb in size. Apparently the limit for attachments of the forum has been surpassed. This is the last paragraph of the review: "But step back from those details and enjoy the broader view: Gallagher's genuine talent for making grippy pop from elementary materials. In "Ballad of the Mighty I", which features Johnny Marr from The Smiths on guitar, Gallagher sells his determination ("Wherever you run, I'll be on your tail" )at a dark-disco-gait with a hall-of-echoes vocal effect that keeps ringing in your head after the song is over. It's hardly rocket science. It is a great ride worth repeating.

A 5.9 from Pitchfork is a huge win for Noel.
