In my humble opinion, Elbow is one of the great bands of their generation. With each album they further establish themselves as a class unto themselves. With The Take Off and Landing of Everything, they deliver another collection of stellar songs. While the lengthier tracks might be mistaken for a shift toward greater ambition, Elbow has always been about crafting specific soundscapes. On this album they simply give these songs the room to fully inhabit the spaces where they live.
