"An amazing backstory. Recorded albums in 1970 and 1971 and was released from the lael. This is his first album of new material since 1971 and it is inspiring." Reply

"I love the concept and the execution here. A really unique take on psych-pop and Agnes is still one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard." Reply

"Easily one of my favourite albums from them in years. It feels like it shares many spiritual connections with the seminal, Fabulous Muscles. "Get Up" is like the most stereotypically Xiu Xiu ever conceived." Reply

"The production/sound design on this is pretty impressive, lots of disorienting blips running around, huge bass sounds ect.

"I saw the band on this tour and they were on top of their game live. "Intruder" has to be one of my favorite instrumentals of all time.

"Excellent work from the Tangerine Dream heyday. Chris Franke's driving Moog Modular bass rhythms are an underlying feature throughout. Analogue drums also feature heavily, something not heard on Phaedra or Rubycon. The simple yet haunting piano introduction on side 2 is embellished with an eerie ..." Reply

"Beautiful album. Sounds like a mix of Lou Reed and Elliot Smith. Not all the songs were spectacular, but the album is solid from front to back. This album feels like a warm spring day." Reply
