Released a year after the band had left school; this debut impressed the public and critics alike. An earnest and heartfelt record which wears its heart on its sleeve, it introduced the band to an eager audience.

If this is the band's Everest, not only do they conquer it with unassuming boyish romance, but they've also created the most poignant anthology of what it means to be young and restless in the city.

NME

'They sound as if the Pavement and Strokes catalogues are imprinted on their synapses and play with the fuzzy, slack assurance of people twice their age.'

The Guardian

A radical departure, 'Flaws' evolved from an acoustic EP into a standalone album in a matter of months, displaying a respect and appreciation of folk traditions as well as startling musicianship. 

'They've proved themselves to be a band who defy convention with an album stuffed full of subtle invention and an emotional intensity.'

NME

'Steadman's vocal stands out, it heightens the sense of an authentically troubled spirit exorcising his demons in the quietly devastating manner of a Nick Drake.'

BBC Music

Their most ambitious and successful album to date, from the delicate introduction of 'How Can You Swallow So Much Sleep' to the beautifully haunting 'Still', truly a modern classic.

'Enough talk about reinventions, this is more of an evolution. On A Different Kind Of Fix, Bombay Bicycle Club have, quite simply, found themselves.'

NME

'They dart in yet another direction, devising a shuffling indie-dance style that recalls Talking Heads, Happy Mondays and Animal Collective, but somehow manages to sound homogenously all of a piece.'

The Independent
