"There is an auteur spirit to “The Gods We Can Touch”. Aurora frames the album with explorations of femininity and tributes to pagan deities.

"A great album. I didn't even buy The Rainbow Children but this one felt like an amazing comeback. The songs are all great, and it's shorter, feeling leaner and more powerful than anything he'd done in a long time."  Reply

"It feels strange to be starting off what is ostensibly a list about the Western canon of music from the 1960s with an album that is unashamedly not Western.
