The first single, "The Shock of the Lighting" was released earlier and became an instant hit. The other single released before the album was called "Falling Down" and this one became an even bigger hit. There was a remix version of the song feature The Chemical Brothers which was good too.
Once the album was released, reviews started pouring in from around the world and boy oh boy did they praise the album.
BBC Radio 1 DJ Edith Bowman said she thought the band were "back on total firing form", adding that the songs were "huge", that the first single would "hit you like a tonne weight and just really reminded me of when I heard stuff like "Rock 'n' Roll Star" and "Supersonic" for the first time", and to "get excited 'cos it will blow you away, and also that Liam had "properly acquired the title of 'great songwriter'."
Jonathan Cohen of Billboard says that with Dig Out Your Soul, the group "[Gets] back to its stripped-down rock roots" and that the opening song, "Bag it Up" harks back to Definitely Maybe's "Columbia"
Luke Bainbridge of The Observer gave the album 4 stars out of 5, saying "You could say that if Definitely Maybe was their Stone Roses, Dig Out Your Soul is their Second Coming. It won't win them any new fans, but those that believed the truth last time will dig this"
Rolling Stones Magazine was one of very few reviews which were not great. They gave the album 2 1/2 / 5.
I personally would give the album 4.5/5.

1. Falling Down
2. Bag It Up
3. I'm Outta Time
