Richard Ashcroft in general:
... first time I saw The Verve - and they were trading under the name 'Verve' at that point - it was 1992, they were supporting Ride, and they were just so much sci-fi sonic bombast, all throbbing bass, formless guitar and this goon at the front who needed a haircut, singing lessons and reminding that he had an audience in front of him. They lacked tunes but they also lacked the stature they thought came wit... Read the full review: THE Urban Poet by garykaill |

Richard Ashcroft in general ... the Verve were still the Verve, Richard Ashcroft just seemed like another indie group's lead singer -a good voice, but otherwise, talentless.

Richard Ashcroft in general ... Richard Ashcroft may have achieved with the Verve, and however he may have furthered the cause of guitar music, I really can't stand the man. He comes across as supremely arrogant, generally far more pretentious that his talent warrants. It's isn't that he makes bad music - on the contrary, it's often pretty decent - it's the fact that he is so widely worshipped and revered which annoys me, because from what I have seen, he doesn't deserve the praise. What I have heard of Richard Ashcroft's solo work is reasonable, but nothing special – and this kind of runs through everything he does. His music seems to me too standard to war...

Richard Ashcroft in general ... two top 20 singles under his belt already as he embarks on his new solo career, the ex-Verve frontman releases his debut solo album. Verve fans have been eagerly awaiting any type of Verve release - whatever it may be. They don't care if The Verve, Richard Ashcroft or Nick McCabe release something. The public are hungry and Richard Ashcroft has come to satisfy their appetite. Most people who buy the album expecting another Urban Hymns style album will be very disappointed. His songwriting approach to this album is very unlike the 'Bittersweet Symphony' and 'The Drugs Don't Work' of Urban Hymns and he takes a softer, more country like manner...
