Brother is the fourth studio album by Irish boy band Boyzone, released on 5 March 2010 in Ireland.
The album contains the single "Gave It All Away", released as a tribute to Gately and also features his vocals on the song "Stronger".
And has noticed that the album is "a ballad-heavy effort with lots of piano melodies, string arrangements, and grandiose choruses".
Simon Gage from Daily Express said that "The first album since the death of Stephen Gately last year, is a poignant outing for Boyzone and features the last recorded vocals of their 'brother'".
He also said that: "The debut single Gave It All Away sets the tone for what is a much more grown-up album of songs that veer closer to adult rock than the sometimes cheesy pop we associate with Boyzone."
Mike Diver from BBC said that: “It’s soft about its edges, its lyrical content exclusively syrupy – but that’s fine, as at this stage in their career, pronounced progression was never a likely option".
Lauren Murphy from Entertainment.ie said that: "Employing some known songwriters of the pop world makes Boyzone's fourth album 'Brother' a less amateur sounding affair than the now quartet's usual material".
