Second Album? Jack? good work NME! On the other hand Sam's new album kills it!

1st, 2nd or 3rd Album, they're all good. This is no exception. Really looking forward to the home coming show next Friday.

I am so excited about this new album! I have only listened to a bit of each track 'cos I don't want to spoil the pleasure of listening to it when it comes out. Rather like opening your presents before Christmas - I just had a peek. Amazing production! Can't wait to hear it in full!

Sorry, but I am a bit disappointed of this album. The first two touch my soul with their simplicity. It was more or less just Sam and his guitar. Also the lyrics spoke out quite what I felt. I haven't paid too much attention to that due the first time, so this still might be. But for me the sound is a bit too polished too much pop element. However, I still wish him all the best and I really hope to be able to see sometime in Germany =)

Genre melting music for the fun loving broad minded.Songs to bring people together to make a differance.The collaborations keep it fresh.Great underrated talent.

Henning, too much pop element? what underground german music have you been listening to recently? its hardly as commercial as the first two album, i think he has done a good job in doing more what he wanted and less of what hes told, the second album was disappointing in my opinion, largely down to the influence of a major label. it doesn't flow like a river or hit me like a hammer, but its a good third album. The Uprising being the standout.
