  1. New Musical Express (NME)

    This is a brilliant album that will no doubt top some 'best of 2008' lists, but it's hard to work out if it's a one-off or not.
  2. Uncut
    60
    Johansson's bland, flat contralto leaves you admiring the Cocteau Twins-style sonic backdrops and wondering how another singer--Liz Fraser, perhaps?--might improve them.
  3. Dusted Magazine
    30
    Anywhere I Lay My Head falters on Johansson's vocals, or lack of a distinctive voice.

    I really didn't expect to like this at all, let alone this much. Something in it just works.

    Amazing production, and fine enough vocals to make it an amazing album.
