Do It! finds Clinic getting curiouser and curiouser, but that's the direction that suits them best.
-
Alternative PressThe fifth disc in this succession proves Clinic never skip a beat or miss a step. [June 2008, p.134]
-
No song is longer than three minutes and 30 seconds, and the band seems to be on a mission to get in, do it, and get out. It's that attitude that keeps Clinic a fixture, with an unsettling, enjoyable addition to its repertoire to boot.
-
Do It is simply a case of Clinic once again doing what they do best; but with a new-found vigour that rediscovers the confident swagger of earlier releases while building upon realms explored on later excursions.
-
It’s nothing new and it’s nothing scary, but its renewed vigor is encouraging.
-
MagnetDo It! is accessible enough to appeal to both curious indie-pop fans and avant musos without an obscurantist chip in their shoulders. [Summer 2008, p.98]
-
Far from being a band at a crossroads, as might have been implicated around the release of "Funf," they reaffirm themselves here as one of our unsung independent music gems.
-
Clinic play with a renewed sense of the same eerie raucousness that drew people to them in the first place; this would be an easy second-album recommendation for a new fan after they've initially discovered and absorbed "Internal Wrangler."
-
SpinThe result is some of the loosest, most facinating music of their career. [Apr 2008, p.92]
-
Do It! simply adds another 30 minutes to Clinic's quest to keep playing the perfect sound forever. With a sound as arresting as this, it's hard to fault them for not branching out more.
-
Under The RadarClinic has returned to making music that feels limitless. [Spring 2008, p.7]
