    This is the first absolutely essential UK disc of the year.
  2. Dot Music

    At 70 minutes, it could've done with a pruning.
  3. Almost Cool

    They definitely have some hummable hooks, and at moments the album feels like it's going to shake off the reigns of running the middle-ground, but just about the time you think things are going to bust loose like a rocking Monk and Cantella track, they swerve back into more agreeable sounds.
  4. CDNow

    From Here On In may grab you with a slide-guitar hook here, a tiny melody or vocal quirk there, after repeated listening. But it's hard to justify the five or six hours necessary to achieve such meager nirvana.
