    Captivating!! I felt that his voice is more mature and controlled. It is comfortable to listen and the desire to listen over and over again. Confidence and dedication are the words. It's impeccable, and once again Louis managed to exceed ALL my expectations. Huge evolution, both in career and in voice and confidence.

    Amazing album! Louis didn’t fail to surprise us with incredible vocals, sounds and melodies that are breathtaking and super different from what he has done previously!

    It is amazing to see Louis experimenting with new sounds and making it seem as if he’s been making this kind of music for years, the growth artistically from Walls really is noticeable, and even though Walls was already a good album, I think Faith In The Future just shows and represents who Louis is a lot better. Congratulations on this album Louis, it is incredible.

While it was obviously written with live performances in mind, it also has the feat of making you feel like you're at the arena and want to scream the lyrics at the top of your lungs. He knows his strengths and he plays them, showcasing his honest-as-ever songwriting through ballad-like tunes like Angels Fly and That’s The Way Love Goes, but he also knows that he's at his best when he goes all out. A personal and popular favourite is Written All Over You Face, an indie disco anthem that reveals a side of Tomlinson previously unseen, a punch in the gut we can't get enough of. And, of course, each of his songs bears his signature Yorkshire accent, endearing and, in an era of standardized and Americanized singing, is refreshing with authenticity.… Expand

    If anything, however, new album ‘Faith In The Future’ is simply too nice. The songwriting is sturdy and well-formed, leaning on his indie roots – you can hear ghosts of the Gallaghers, whispers of Chris Martin – without ever truly channelling something dangerous, or edgy. ... It just doesn’t raise the pulse, or quicken the blood-flow in a way you might long for.
