    Good Points: Deep feel makes it far from 'shallow'Some nice art work I suppose - if not a little strange.


    Bad Points: The track 'Fallen Tree' features some unnecessary and excessive swearing? Not really a bad point but I feel that this song could be a lot better if only it didn't break out into an 'f - bomb' half way through.


    General comments: Damien Rice should be proud of this piece - 9 is a collection of 'deep' songs that work well as an album.

    My only problem with 9 is the track 'Fallen Tree' in which Damien seems to explode an 'f - bomb' - that is to say, the lyrics aren't very 'clever' - I find this swearing to be a bit excessive despite the fact that it was intended to provoke emotion and portray a feeling of anger.

    Aside from this slight down point, I would recommend 9 to anyone - and although I'm not familiar with O, popular opinion would suggest that this is a good follow up.

    I was completely addicted to 'O'. I did not think another album would ever touch it. I was wrong. 9 just shows the raw talent Damien Rice has. Some albums can become jaded if they are over listened to, but that can't be said about this - a pure joy to listen to.

    There is only one word to describe '9' and that is WOW!

    As a follow up album to Damien Rice's 'O', I didn't think it would even come close to comparing to it, but this album just shows how talented this guy is! Another masterpiece! Check out track 2; that's my personal favourite!

    Admittedly, I thought that after Damien Rice's "O" album that anything he did afterwards wouldn't make up to it. However, as soon as I listened to the first track on his new album "9," I was proven very wrong. From the opening strums of '9 Crimes' and the first few lines of Lisa Hannigan's glorious vocal, it's painfully obvious to hear that 9 is just as stunning.
    This is a beautiful album. I would definitely recommened to others.
