Alternative PressThinking-person's Britpop. [Oct 2005, p.166]
-
It’s all rather marvellous.
-
Entertainment WeeklyThis time, [Bramwell] transcends that reference [to Robyn Hitchcock], with angular arrangements and a darkly romantic wit that's all his own. [26 Aug 2005, p.61]
-
MojoWhere Kloot's self-titled second had moments of glowing, maximalist production, here the sound is pared back. [May 2005, p.106]
-
No BIG message here; I Am Kloot simply made a good, heartfelt rock record and, without sounding like they had to try too hard, pulled it off.
-
SpinEventually it hits you just how godlike catchy these banalities are. [Aug 2005, p.103]
-
Though on the whole, Gods And Monsters is a lesser record than I Am Kloot, what it lacks in great songs, it gains in stylistic advancement.
-
Admirers will likely crown Gods and Monsters the band's best yet, while the lilting chorus of the single, Over My Shoulder, might make even the unititiated cock an ear.
