Score distribution:
  1. Positive: 6 out of 11
  2. Negative: 1 out of 11
  1. Exquisitely moody songs alternate with instrumentals that sound like outtakes from the Mothers of Invention's Burnt Weeny Sandwich (that's a compliment). [25 Jan 2002, p.107]
  2. A superb piece of work. [Apr 2002, p.117]
  3. 60
    [The instrumentals are] a curious bonus for his fans, but not much more. [Feb/Mar 2002, p.113]
  4. Half this record sounds like a field recording from a daycare play room. [Mar 2002, p.84]
