My opinion of this album has chopped and changed a lot over the years. When it first came out in 1998 I was smitten. Embrace talked the talk and that arrogance seemed merited when I first listened to "The Good Will Out". Maybe it's me being older, maybe the album hasn't aged very well, but there's something missing from this album and I can't quite put my finger on what it is. Oh, don't get me wrong; this is a good album, but it is dragged down at times by some songs which are mediocre at best. A symptom perhaps of the length of the album, tracklisting as follows: Intro All You Good Good People My Weakness is None of Your ...  Read the complete review

The Good Will Out was created by Embrace a band based around the McNamara brothers. At the time this was released in 1998, Oasis were the biggest band in the country and Richard Ashcroft, Paul Weller and Ian Brown were revered for their gritty pop-rock music. Embrace made this album and touted themselves as the next big thing, unfortunately the hype never really took off, which in many ways is a shame as this is a decent album. The song is full of impressive songs with guitars strings and soaring vocals, there are some brilliant songs on this album such as the splendid 'All you good good people' which really is anthemic and was enjoyed at many ...  Read the complete review

Having searched high and low on this website i could not find any link to the top band, Embrace. I own both of the albums, The Good Will Out and Drawn From Memory, and I have seriousviews about all of these albums. The first album, The Good Will Out, has several good tunes on it, such as the single "Coming Back To What You Know" aswell as two or three others. But sadly this album didn't quite have the consistency through out to make it a major hit and was probably only good for a hardcore Embrace fan. But whatever they did wrong on the first album they certainly made up for with an absolutley amazing second album. I will not go through the good songs ...  Read the complete review

Yes you heard me. Whenever you mention Embrace you always hear a snigger and a remark of "Oasis wannabes". In my opinion however, they are far far superior to Oasis. Ok so Danny may not be the most stylish singer around but at least what he does sounds like he means it. Those who disagree should listen to "Fireworks" and then try the argument again. This album is absolutely amazing. From the start with "All you good good people" to the finish with the sing-a-longish "Good will out" it draws you in and compells you to listen. I first got into Embrace a couple of years ago. It was the holidays and I was bored so me and a mate ...  Read the complete review

This is one of the most moving albums I've ever heard! The tracks are great and there is a whole variety of songs, from rock and roll through to huge instrumentals. However, the jewel in this album's crown definately has to be the final three songs, beautifully strung together, and the title song, 'The Good Will Out' has to go down as one of my most listened to songs ever, the lyrics are amazing! Go buy this now! ...  Read the complete review
