Sep 12, 2014This is the most cohesive, band-centric album the current iteration of Pere Ubu has released, its strongest album of the new millennium.
-
Sep 2, 2014This is a Pere Ubu album. It is exactly what you expect and exactly what you don’t. The variety and subtlety and diversity and ferocity of this collection defies belief, much like their last, fantastic record.

Q MagazineSep 2, 2014Though its concept may remain opaque, Carnival Of Souls compels. [Oct 2014, p.116]
-
UncutSep 2, 2014Deja Bu, but a thrill worth experiencing again. [Oct 2014, p.77]
-
The WireDec 2, 2014The production on Carnival OF Souls is particularly vivid. [Sep 2014, p.58]
-
Sep 10, 2014Carnival is far more subdued than Shanghai, simmering with supernatural menace, but never quite breaking into frenzy.
-
Sep 2, 2014As with all their post-Y2K output, Carnival Of Souls sometimes threatens to buckle under the weight of Ubu’s history. Overall, however, it scrapes up enough sporadic excellence to justify David Thomas’ perseverance in the 21st-century scheme of things.
