Elbow - Grounds For Divorce (Universal)
3/5
By: Matt Tomiak
Welcome back, Elbow. You seem a bit...well...different.
In a makeover worthy of a glossy US reality TV series, Guy Garvey and his perennial nearly men have discarded the ruminative melancholia of yesteralbum and swaggered back onto the scene with a chunky-riffed, Beck-tastic rumble of a comeback record, its Spiritualized neo-gospel choral section swelling to an epic crescendo worthy of 'The Bends.'
An unlikely, but thoroughly welcome, overhaul.
