SpinThe result is some of the loosest, most facinating music of their career. [Apr 2008, p.92]
-
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.
-
Do It! finds Clinic getting curiouser and curiouser, but that's the direction that suits them best.
-
If you pardon our French, Clinic’s fifth album is pretty fucked up--and yet it's also their best effort to date.
-
On their fifth album, they crack the window, slow the motor (except on 'Shopping Bag,' a jazz-punk binge and purge) and take side trips into primeval glades where runic rites are conducted on acoustic guitars.
-
Do It! is a mediocre album, and further cements Clinic’s status as a retro novelty band.
-
Do It! is the first Clinic record that seems assembled from bits of old Clinic records, its personality the result of combined ideas rather than new ones.
