PeterMSep 27, 2004A great album. Different from "bright lights" in mood but just as addictive a few listens later.

TomSep 27, 2004There is no filler on this album, every song is at least *good.* And there are 4 classics on this one (Not Even Jail, Take you on a Cruise, C'mere, and Evil). The NYC best band debate is officially closed.

There's something totally irresistible about Antics: The air of mystery, the bleak but hopeful arrangements and the melodies so sharp and moving that they might inspire a night of heroic partying.
-
New Musical Express (NME)An album scored through with a vehement beauty that, with each listen, becomes all the more acute for its unwillingness to shy away from life's bleaker, more painful moments. [25 Sep 2004, p.62]

Q MagazineAntics is ridiculously good. [Oct 2004, p.112]
