Love Travels At Illegal Speeds is the guitarist's most personal and accomplished release to date and should see him pick up more prizes like the Best Solo Artist award he bagged from NME in 2005.

It's Coxon's most accomplished work yet; a dazzling, spirited display in songwriting that should eulogise him as one of Britain's coolest musical talents.

It's a very honest record that is, by turns, shy, strident, effervescent, romantic, fun, funny, sad, charming, often upbeat on the surface yet sometimes confused at its heart, and as such is one that perfectly represents its creator.

Love Travels at Illegal Speeds makes a conscious effort to apply some of Albarn's songwriting precision, resulting in his best set by a country (house) mile.

All in all, a fabulously racy pop joyride.

Unpromising and unassuming at first glance, its highlights burrow under your skin and stay there.

The slightness of this album is hard to hold a grudge against, but ain't nothing oh-my-god necessary about it either.

It's an album to enjoy, but not one to love, and definitely not at speeds which run the risk of breaking the law. Still a cracking title then, but one that, in relation to this record at least, is a bit misleading.

Love Travels At Illegal Speeds is a well-made record which ticks all the right boxes, but leaves you with a sense that, for all the new emotional terrain, there was a missed opportunity for a bolder, more adventurous sound.
