Q MagazineMay 17, 2011He's not the first person to have exploited the uranium half-life of the '80s but on Confetti's doomy missile-silo clang and the brassy Robert Smith jive of Alchemy And You, he customises it smartly for a newly paranoid generation. [May 2011, p.112]

Apr 4, 2011Simultaneously depressing and uplifting, evil and camp, it's an inspiring, majestic paradox of an album.
-
Apr 5, 2011Cold Cave are not shooting for nuance; the tracks here all beg to be the highlights, striving for anthemic bliss without any modesty.

Apr 7, 2011There's no shortage of macabre catch-phrases and hooky shout-a-longs, but if you haven't the patience for this much gloom, then the album's 40 minutes can drag in the middle.

Under The RadarJun 8, 2011It doesn't feel like Eisold's ambitious vision's been fully realized just yet, but he comes damn close on this excellent record. [May 2011, p.83]

Apr 18, 2011If this is your thing, you'll be happy (sad?) to hear that Eisold has done it again, and offers us yet another beautifully written and comprehensively detailed chapter in the endless book of self.
-
Apr 7, 2011Having blown out and polished away all of the music's industrial grit, Eisold reveals himself to be little more than a meticulously researched, clinical New Order cover act.
