    Rushes of blood to the head aside, Progress is a triumph; musically, conceptually, personally. Print edition only

    Progress sounds more like a fresh start than a final destination

  13. 6.0 |   Scotland on Sunday

    A solid album that will comfort their millions of fans as they journey into middle age

  14. 6.0 |   The Scotsman

    What's most impressive is the bond [Stuart] Price has created between what once made this group so successful and what's gone on in music since they've been away

  15. 6.0 |   The Irish Times

    The Beatles balladry has given way to stomping electro-pop more suited to Muse or Ultravox
