Max M gave it a9:
Am a huge Scritti fan and although this didn't grab me on first listen, it has worked its way into my brain and heavy rotation in my ipod. As always, Green surprises and satisfies. Still think Anomie was sorely underrated.
Lawrence P gave it an8:
10 out of the 14 tracks work really well. One of the best and smartest pop long players of the year for sure.
Enda G gave it a9:
This is a superbly intelligent, melodic and rich album that improves with time. Stunning work.
Joel B gave it a3:
It's wonderful that Green is still alive. But musically, really, go back and listen to Scritti's old stuff. He's lost it.
nemorino gave it a10:
Alludes to wasted years, unhealthy addictions with poise, elegance and not inconsiderable regret. Takes a while - but stay with it!
Indro V gave it a9:
A great record !
