"This is pretty different from the African albums I’ve listened to. It doesn’t sit under the folk and pop umbrellas that tend to dominate. There are African instruments playing alongside European orchestral instruments. It’s a very ambitious (perhaps progressive) album, I even want to call it a co..." [+] Reply

"Alan Parson has produced some excellent albums and this is one of his best with tracks like Don't Answer Me', 'You Don't Believe', 'Prime Time' and 'Ammonia Avenue'. Having worked as a Sound Engineer with The Beatles, Pink Floyd, The Hollies and Steven Wilson to name but a few, it is no surprise ..." [+] Reply
"The most challenging of Oldham's Palace releases, which is surprising because of how the low-key funky folk at the beginning almost seems rather affable coming from him, but it's more than just the recorded music.

"This album is a perfect example of when lyrics end up carrying the heaviest load. Very much like Cheap Trick's best albums, the songwriting from Art Alexakis is so strong that really you could have played almost anything under it and it would still be a pretty killer album.

"This record flies under the radar for so many listeners and it really deserves a lot more praise as it is brilliant. This is a singer songwriter record which has no bad songs at all.
