The Brit alt-rockers were fully revitalized after a seven-year hiatus, dropping this full set of high-powered, grandly orchestrated anthems in 2008. James' 10th album pulls together their strongest assets: "Bubbles" sparkles on a bed of lush guitars, while Tim Booth’s powerful croon bursts into a triumphant cry of "I'm alive!" It's a powerful proclamation given the gravitas that follows, with "Hey Ma" referencing 9/11 and the dramatic rocker "Boom Boom" flooding with a rush of funereal strings.
