Generally favorable reviews - based on 12 Critics What's this?

  • Summary: L(ucky) Pierre is the alter-ego of former Arab Strap member Aidan Moffat, and the cinematic, instrumental 'Dip' was recorded shortly before that band's breakup.
Score distribution:
  1. Positive: 6 out of 12
  2. Negative: 0 out of 12
  1. Moffat knows how to conduct, contort and concoct fountains of melancholia.
  2. So, an unexpected turn from our commentator on urban squalor with this dreamlike, abstract paean to Mother Nature and the great outdoors.
  3. Not song-based, the album relies on mood... making its impact in a similar, slightly less accomplished manner to Brian Eno's early ambient experiments. [Feb 2007, p.102]
