    Although the album is full of brilliance, album opener 'Marina' stands headstrong above the others in terms of scope and grandeur, a dirty distorted guitar solo coupled with an African style instrumental and tribal chorusing sees 'Fever' go from commendable to a masterpiece.

    Sun-scorched heavy blues rock from Cosmic Californians. [July 2010, p. 94]

  3. New Musical Express (NME)
    50
    Yet it's also a record that's in denial of things like the atomic bomb, IBM, the internet and the fucking millennium. And that really is the true spirit of nihilism, no matter how well you dress it up in your parents' rags.
