(What's the Story) Morning Glory?

Really impressive debut that announced a major new talent. There are a few rough edges that betray inexperience, but the raw ability and creative vision are undeniable. Can't wait to hear what comes next.

I keep seeing this on 'best of' lists and I honestly think people are just copying each other's homework at this point. There's nothing here that hasn't been done better elsewhere. The emperor has no clothes and the praise is baffling.

A confident, mature work. You can hear the growth from their earlier releases.

A few tracks could have been cut without losing anything, but what's here is largely excellent. The production is gorgeous and the performances are top-notch. One of the better albums I've heard recently.

A decent listen but it doesn't hold up to repeated plays the way their best work does.

I respect the ambition but this doesn't work for me.

There are flashes of brilliance but also some tracks that feel underdeveloped.
