'The man who' has sold 8 platinum and 'the invisible band' has sold 4 platinum. A more upbeat approach is used in certain songs, having said that the lyrics have become gloomy. No more flowers. As everyone has seen, Travis’ first single 're-offender' has criticised the problem of domestic violence. Everyone might not agree their political point view, but the memorable melody is definitely appealing to everyone. If you are looking for 'why does it always rain on me' second, I am sorry, '12 memories' is not for you. If you are looking for an album seeing Travis exploring a more mature side, '12 memories' is definitely the choice to complete your CD collection. This album has 12 songs in different styles expressing different opinions that are worthwhile to think about.

Advantages: Great, easy listen with different and original tracks. Disadvantages: Not a huge fan of the dull cover, as it does not fully portray the music.
