    One of the most underrated albums of all time [3]

    Love this album. Some of the tracks, particularly the sublime Newborn, are remarkably ambitious for a debut release.

    One of the most underrated albums of all time, IMO.

    Songs like Red & Powder Blue have the atmosphere, that I actually miss in their new songs :-(

    Boring album

    Their best album and most experimental. Even though it isn't really experimental at all compared to lots of other stuff, I just like the eerie atmosphere to this album, so dark and creepy. And the drums on this album are the best off of any Elbow album.

    The album that got me into Elbow. I like the contrasting dynamics (see Newborn) and the flurries of clean, acoustic and distorted guitar. Very layered and mature for a debut release.

    I see now "The title track, "Asleep in the Back," was included as a bonus track on later editions of the album after it had been released as a single and became the band's first Top 20 hit"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asleep_in_the_Back

    :-( i recently found out that I have the album asleep in the back without the title track (!!!!! grrrrrr). AND I REFUSE TO BUY THE ALBUM AGAIN. so, eh, hm, if someone has that song, Flac, 320 or high vbr, would be pretty awesome. Yes, I already stumbled through the net, downloads u find doesnt contain the title track, although it appears so. (i wonder if i just broke some essential last.fm rulez...)
