"Good stuff here! It's like Wilco if they wore demin jackets and were angry but still didn't want to make a punk band. So the singer puts more venom in the voice and charges into the fray in his own confusion. I mean titles like 'Sweet Little Thing' and 'Slow Dancing' suggest nice little songs yet..."  [+]  Reply

"Zimmerman's best venture into house music to date. Big hitting dance songs balanced out by more experimental, ambient ones like Soma and brought together fantastically at the end with Strobe. Certainly easy to see how people find this boring, and they're right to see the album that way. But look ..."  [+]  Reply

"This could almost be a Greatest Hits release by one of the all-time most underrated bands, The Beautiful South. There are some oustanding tracks to keep you interested but the others will start to grown on you too with each re-listen."  Reply

"My latest discovery, found thanks to BEA. The most amazing blend of styles I ever heard. Heavy metal drumming, guitar work sometimes reminding of Muse or Tool or something else totally. Horns that are perfect in the swing big band mode. And the singing is the most unique element of this band ... ..."  [+]  Reply

"It is an album of covers, but it seems he brings more emphasis to the emotion of the lyrics than some of the originals. Really just beautiful. It seems Gabriel is singing with his last whim on every song; a broken man singing with heart and soul. The atmosphere of the album reminds me of Johnny C..."  [+]  Reply
