    Takes the scattered clicks and beats of Autechre and combines it with the tunefulness of Spiritualized.... Very rewarding.

    With Cold House, Hood provide evidence that their time in the sun is long overdue. [Dec 2001, p.84]

    Uniformly excellent.... Few, if any, British bands are making music quite like this right now.

    Indeed a modern pastoral masterpiece a la Talk Talk's Laughing Stock and PJ's Is This Desire?
