Judging by the contents of Forth, the Verve spent their time in the studio behaving the way all men in their late 30s behave at a reunion: they stayed up late pretending to be 21 again. In stoned psychedelic texture and brooding atmosphere, Forth recalls the Verve's first two albums, A Storm in Heaven and A Northern Soul. Legend has it that both of those were recorded under the influence of copious quantities of drugs. No one is confessing whether stimulants were involved in the making of Forth. But with several songs meandering past the six- or seven-minute mark, you suspect that no one.
