"'What a Life' gallops with a grandiosity that recalls Arcade Fire, and 'Stop the Clocks' is full-on orchestral-rock orgy.", 4 stars out of 5 -- "Here, for the first time in years, the primetime Gallagher swagger is back, in a more mature form. The sheer audacity of 'The Death Of You And Me''s sudden chicane into ragtime jazz is a joy to behold.", "Oasis' Better Half Delivers a Bracingly Kinetic Solo Salvo." -- Grade: B+, "On his solo debut, Noel shows off his acclaimed songwriting skills on the Kinks-like dancehall swing/'60s spy theme of 'Soldier Boys'...", 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "Cooking down the Beatles' LSD pop into MDMA head-rushes like Oasis did, he does his old brand proud."

Noel Gallagher's first post-Oasis album finds the rocker indulging in his fondness for stately midtempo psychedelia and ballads.
