Haven't posted here in so long, but thought I'd chuck my two pennies in on the album - listened to it so many times now, in fact I'm listening to it as I type. Would have to say it's the bands best effort so far, more diverse than the others, good call with Aaron sharing vocal duties - Greg has a great voice but it's good to keep things fresh. Fave tracks are Friends Are False, Hooray, Keep it Simple and the stunning Pieces, which is the best track on the album IMO. My only (tiny) gripe is that maybe Panic Attacks (my current fave Delays song) is stronger than The Earth Gave Me You and might have made a better closer - but then what do I know? Guess it shows the quality of the bands current output that such a good song can be ommited, and the Love Made Visible EP is ace:-)
All in all I'd give Everything's the Rush a hearty 9/10 and no doubt it will be permanently on my iPod all summer! Also, was at the Leeds Cockpit gig recently and wanted to say well done on a great show - it was my first Delays gig in over a year and you've really grown as a live act, really tight musically and good energy and stage presence - brilliant gig:-) Good luck with the new album, fingers crossed you'll get the recognition that we've all known you deserve
