"I predict that this album would become a classic. Please indicate to me if I'm wrong. This is the first time as I reviewed the 2010's disk. I'll be slowly followed by other ..." Reply
"Best song is Love Nest. A bit of a difficult album to get into though." Reply
"I listen to an album like this and wonder why Wishbone Ash wasn't bigger. Super crisp instrumentation highlighted by the band's always excellent guitar work, made both accessible enough for casual listeners and intricate enough for deeper fans. Talk about a band full of hidden gems" Reply
"I remember I was disappointed when I listened to it for the first time - although (or because) I liked the earlier albums very much. This one grew on me almost everytime I listened to it, and pretty soon it became my favourite Doves album. It is a pity that it still is the last record they released." [+] Reply

"This guy's a great fuckin' musician. The album is truly inventive and I never paid attention to it. Love the way that its music's structures are vulnerable to the arrangements." Reply

"This album is vastly underrated on this site. It's not even in the top 100 of the year it was released. I haven't looked at the entire 1995 chart, but surely this one deserves a spot." Reply

"A haunting set of songs, it will only get better with more listens. I really hope they continue to make music together, as this is way too good to be a one off. Bite The Hand is probably my favorite song of the year, and the EP overall is definitely my favorite release." Reply

"Air provides a psychedelic caress between the disassociative culture that gave us ambient music and the idealistic and naive world of post war America which gave us The Birth of Cool.
