Notes
With their debut album, a Storm in Heaven, this British band captured the ears of every rock critic in America, and, in addition to a sold-out U.S. tour, The Verve toured with Lollapalooza in '94. With a U.S. fan base of 50,000, the band released a Northern Soul, and with 3 new singles and steady touring, they reached new career heights, only to break-up suddenly. This highly welcomed reunion album features the single/video "Bitter Sweet Symphony," which debuted at #2 on the British charts.

  • Absolutely brilliant

    This CD is absolutely brilliant. The fact that there are even people saying that it's anything less than a classic is utterly astounding to me. If you're a fan of more mellow British music, this CD is a perfect fit. The Verve don't have the swagger or the sing-along choruses that Oasis have, and it works for them. The lyrics are (almost entirely) wonderful, and the songs themselves have a timeless feel to them. The CD opens with the classic Bitter Sweet Symphony (often people call it "Bittersweet Symphony," but that isn't the proper title), and I think that song alone could lyrically save the entire CD, if the album actually needed it. It doesn't. How can you forget lines like "I let the melody shine/Let it cleanse my mind/I feel free now/But the airwaves are clean/And there's nobody ...

  • Hymns Triumphant

    Hands down the Verve's most impressive album to date. It may not have been their last one as reports from the UK suggest the band is currently reforming. It is assumed new material will follow. However, if Urban Hymns was the last release from the Verve, it would be a beautiful swan song. The Verve seems to finally do what its peers have been proclaiming they should have done years prior to the Urban Hymns release, claim the UK rock throne. In the likes of the Stones and Cream these guys rock with a purpose on this album. Pure rock-pop brilliance here. Hymns gives something new to the die hard fans and gives something expected to brand new listeners. The Verve only faults are tracks like "Neon Wilderness" while die hard fans will recognize this as Verve's true purest roots, new listeners ...

  • bitter sweet, was the right choice

    I heard the song "Bitter Sweet Symphony" and loved that song. I had to find out who sang it. I remembered it was in the movie "Cruel Intentions". It reminded me of a "Simple Minds" song of the 80's. After hearing the whole cd, I was quite impressed , enjoyed every song. This cd does have a lot to offer than just the hit song. I love music and have an ipod that I listen to daily. I grew up listening to 80's new wave and this cd hit a cord with me.

  • Great CD. Timeless.

    Nice CD. Case was perfect.
