UncutFrantic is packed with potential singles, as if he's decided it's not crime to enjoy himself, to embrace foolish things earthier than Avalon. This is classic Ferry, but full of surprises. [May 2002, p.92]
-
Any fan of Bryan Ferry's Roxy work will find Frantic music to their ears.
-
Some listeners might suggest that an album this varied has an identity crisis, but with standout tracks as glorious as the Dylan covers and the Eno closer, Frantic is a fascinating addition to Bryan Ferry's accomplished discography.
-
Positive energy and enthusiasm go a long way here.
-
Ferry could seem too reverent toward the material on As Time Goes By, but his new album, Frantic, feels a lot looser (and less respectful) even as it revisits the singer's favorite sources (Dylan, Leadbelly).
-
MojoA pleasantly surprising step in the right direction. [May 2002, p.104]
-
Frankly, this is total yuppie shit--competent and unobtrusive.
