"Perfect autumnal music. She mixes drone, echoes, and guitar to make something that really sounds like no other album. Can this be characterized as ghostly folk? Each song is recognizable so no need to worry if you're going to get a monotonous album here." Reply

"People won't belive me if I say that this is superior to F sharp A sharp infinity or Lift yr Skinny Fists. But as every is entitled to like whatever he wants, I like this more than these albums, but I don't trust anyone who rates this less than 3 stars" Reply

"MJK can do no wrong in my book. This album has been a mainstay in my collection/playlists for years and I still come back to it over and over again. The record flows so well. It is everything from soothing on tracks like, "The Noose" to the explosive numbers like "Pet". In an unusual fashion for ..." [+] Reply

"This album is really good, it starts with a bang with Underdog, WDATLG? and Fast Fuse, all fantastic songs. Take Aim, Thick as Thieves, Vlad the Impaler are all pretty good too, and of course Fire is the killer track. Some weak tracks like West Ryder Silver Bullet and Secret Alphabets, but other ..."

"Destroying my soul and ego slowly but completely, tears coming out from my half-closed eyes, the whole world fading out from my view, fireworks burning inside of my brain, the future arriving in some obscure places... It's a beautiful tragedy" Reply
