The band worked with various producers on the album including Tony Hoffer , Stuart Price and Mike Crossey .Critical reception David Smyth from the London Evening Standard gave a positive three-star review, calling it "Enough to thrill the masses , and business as usual", and wrote: "Their eighth album overall feels like business as usual too, with a full sound, rich in arm waving choruses and blandly uplifting lyrics." Michael Cragg from The Guardian gave a mixed two-star review, calling Take That "The boyband equivalent of a Reliant Robin", and went on to write: "the overwhelming feeling is of an album made purely to justify taking the show around the arenas. While that's not exactly a new concept, the cynicism of the idea bleeds into the music , with most of the tracks built around cavernous, chant heavy choruses."Promotion Singles "Giants" was released on 17 February 2017 as the first single and was produced by Mark Ralph. it peaked at 13 on the UK Singles Chart .
