The WireThis can be thrilling, unnerving and just occasionally tiresome. [#245, p.53]
-
SpinThis is the work of noise nerds bent on finding beauty where others see nothing but a tangled mess. [Jul 2004, p.110]
-
I don't know if this is one of the bravest or boldest albums of the year, but its definitely one of the neatest.
-
It more or less picks up where Beaches and Canyons left off, allowing for more subtle changes in tone while distilling the Black Dice sound down to a considerably purer essence.
-
Alternative PressIt's a unique psychedelic experience only the most headstrong will be able to handle. [Aug 2004, p.122]
-
MojoIsn't an easy listen but those with an adventurous ear will be well rewarded. [Aug 2004, p.101]
-
Ultimately Creature Comforts is another starry refraction in the cosmic music that Black Dice have claimed, one that hasn't failed yet in dazzling.
-
Under The RadarDespite the somewhat uneasy spirit that runs through the album, the album holds together from start to finish impressively. [#7]
-
Parts of the album seem arbitrarily sparse or less than sure of their ultimate direction, but Creature Comforts congeals into a whole that finds its mind below the surface.
-
One of this year's most interesting records.
-
This is a headphone record of the highest order, where every last detail should be isolated against your ears and pored over.
-
If you dont like noise records then you [should] steer clear of this, but if you happen to like listening to the sound of vacuum cleaners, video games, dishwashers, and other major appliances, I suggest that you buy this immediately.

SicnarfAug 17, 2006Such a good album for texture fiends. Bad album for retarded people (or maybe its the other way around...).
