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

    Not as good as Radiohead Kid A or The Notwist Neon Golden (albums with similar glitch elctronica fused in) but still a great listen and one of the best albums of 2001.

    Best record of the year, hands down. Timeless, yet forward thinking.

    Beautiful combination of electronica, rock, and a dash of hip-hop.

    Fantastically overrated! Pompous. Their early stuff is much better.

    Easily one of the best records I've heard in the last few years. This will be a classic compared to others, such as Slint's Spiderland and Talk Talk's Laughing Stock! Everyone must own this record!

    Another step in Hood's continually compelling sonic evolution. [#52, p.89]

    A hypnotic dream-map of astral drift and spac-age chamber music, textured jazztronica and technoid pulse. [Dec 2001, p.106]
  3. 90
    Hood have crafted a singular meeting of modern electronics, carefully layered arrangements and more conventional rock melancholia. [Dec 2001, p.96]
