"This is actually a very good comeback album, which comes as a surprise as while I'm a fan of both the OG band and Steven Wilson's solo material, I have not liked the guys recent solo releases at all.

"Really good debut from music collective/“spud” murphy come-uppers/Corbynite rockers/Black Country New Road-but-folky Caroline. I’ve long thought just doing Dirty Three but with vocals would spell over great, but this is that and quite a bit more too; a promising new act." Reply

"Enjoyable listen. Fun and dancey. I can hear elements of Joy Division and The Cure but I'm not that well-versed in 80s music." Reply

"An explosive blend of post rock, punk and jazz through a highly artistic spectrum that boasts superb songwriting and intense emotional moments. So many exciting sax melodies. I'm eagerly awaiting a full length project from this group." Reply

Closing track Billy with Steve Shelley and Lee Renaldo is a great work that sounds right out of ..." [+] Reply
