5 is the title of Lamb's fifth album, released in 2011 after a 5-year hiatus. Their sixth album Backspace Unwind was released in October 2014.[1]

Recording and production

The record was the first album from the band after they reformed in 2009.[2]

Critical response

The Independent found that little had changed since their split, with the band still sounding middle-class and unthreatening, although singer Lou Rhodes's voice was sounding more like Stevie Nicks.[4]
