WIN The Verve CDs

The Verve have given us four fantastic albums _ including Urban Hymns, the fifth-fastest selling British album ever on release and one of the landmark releases of the 1990s _ and now comes Forth, which taps deeply into what fans refer to as "old Verve'', the cosmic jams that first emerged on A Storm In Heaven and A Northern Soul. However, tracks like Sit And Wonder and Appalachian Springs combine this with hooks as strong as anything in their catalogue. It's released this Saturday.
