Come on lets be honest its a bit on the boring side isnt it. We have a million bands churning out generic rock long-view are just another example. Good players, Rob is quite literally one of the most talented people i have ever heard. But its a bit boring, bring back the JOKERS !!!!!!!!!!!
got this album when it was released in 2003 after reading a review for it saying they were like elbow and doves 2 bands which i also think are exellent, i was not disapointed great music superb lyrics. always waited for the 2nd album but it hasn't arrived.............................yet i still hope
Yeah, it's such a crime that they're not as big as they should be. Although, I'm seeing them at Cabaret Voltaire in Edinburgh next month, so I'm looking forward to that.
I cannot get enough of this band. You're all dead right,they are so underated. I would choose Long-view over Snow patrol anyday of the year. Fantastic words, tunes and just simply amazing.
I first got to listen to them in August 2006 and I cannot believe that this band with an album like "Mercury" are not given the credit they truly deserve. Imho, "Mercury" alone stands out ahead of Snow Patrol's "Eyes Open" and Coldplay's "X&Y"...Long-view, Embrace & The Upper Room are the most under-rated British bands....
Yeah, I just hope they're given a better chance by the time of their next album. Even the best of bands have had to struggle for a while before finally winning the masses over.
Why did they not make it when their album first came out in 2003, but atrocities like Leorna or whoever won X-Factor stay at #1 for ages? No justice, no justice.
still baffles me as to why they're not one of the most recognised bands,not just in UK but in the world.
they're fucking magnificent!

My band supported them in Hull (England) about 6 years ago. Loved them then and love them now. Should have broken through by now.

how do you mean 'literally' - it doesn't make sense.

Extremely under-rated. It's such a shame.

You mean you can't find a video for When You Sleep on Youtube? I don't think Long-View even made a video for it.

Only six days until I go to see Long-View live for the first time (hopefully not the last), and I am so excited!
They have been my favourite band for 2 years now, one day they will get the recognition they deserve.

If there was any justice, they'd be up there with Snow Patrol and Coldplay. I'd even have this played at my wedding.
