  1. Uncut
    70
    Comes closer to capturing their arse-shaking live performances than any of its predecessors. [Jul 2006, p.104]
  2. Spin
    70
    They've returned to the frantic music of original heroes Gang of Four, banging out songs that vibrate with exactly the tense energy they'd mislaid. [Jun 2006, p.83]
  3. Entertainment Weekly
    75
    There is a definite funky joyousness to be found in this latest collection. [19 May 2006, p.77]
  4. Sharp, intelligent, and (most importantly) highly enjoyable, Enemies Like This is probably the height of the group’s creative abilities.
  5. Urb
    90
    Radio 4 borrow, like everyone else, but they had the idea to borrow before most on the map. [Jun 2006, p.114]
