This is a great (but short) album. It leaves me wishing there was more when it's over (which is a good thing). Good indie rock. I'll be looking forward to Heaven's next release.

Reminds me of early blur, charlatans, , small faces, stone roses etc, the Verve and so on. Good vocals, tight band, decent production.

This band reminds me alot of Pink Flyod, I love the interplay of the music, Very Nice.

(Echo Serena) This is shoe gazer - psych rock - this stuff is right there where you would hope to have it. I would love to see you in concert.
Been too long since I've this kind of emotive grist in the music (plus I have a soft spot for such tasty backings). The vocalist delivers - spot on. Rich concept and atmosphere here. The Heavens have obviously put the thought into this. Great recording, moods, lyrics.
Love it. It's the Heavens -
Yeah!

I signed up for a Jamendo account just so I could write this:

That chord progression in Track 3 is the stuff of genius.

That is all : )

If it were longer, this would be a fine entry into the long tradition of English psychedelic pop.

I must say, this album is very nice. Especially "This beautiful machine", I love the vocals and the main riff there.
Keep it up!

Richard Green is probably the most famous musician who ever has been involved in at Jamendo. He was the songwriter of Ultrasound, which album Everything Picture (1999) was good acclaimed by critics.

It reminds me of old good days, the days which were full of catchy sounds, harmonies, and danceable beats as well. Very nostalgic!

Here is almost all represented having been important for me 10-15 years ago: psychedelic sounds, alternative pop, baggy, soft rock, northern soul. Yes, it is an excellent album indeed!

Found the album by accident, thats why I think this album is flying under the radar. Good solos, nice riffs, good vocals, nice enjoyable sound. Just going on the sound is a really nice enjoyable Indie Pop-rock album with this sort of retro feel to it. Another great virtue of this album is that the lyrics are pretty good too. Again, love the retro feel to it, don't really know what is it that gives it sort of a retro feel from 80's-90's Pop in some songs and even more retro maybe almost Hippie sound (and I mean that in a good way) on songs like "If You're Lost For Somewhere Else To Be". Enjoyable record, worth a listen.

Truth the best awesome band I've heard for long time, and I accidentally click in the wrong icon. Perfect name for a great band and awesome sound. Rock on.
