Entertainment WeeklyThough elaborately orchestrated, the songs retain their intimacy, communicated in Ashcroft's vocals, which, over the years, keep getting warmer. [7 Mar 2003, p.72]
-
It is the best of what Ashcroft does best: thoughtful incantations teeming with emotion, clarity, and vision.
-
Further indulges his penchant for meticulously-crafted songs, exquisite production, and (sometimes painstaking) personal and spiritual introspection.
-
Ashcroft's mastery of balladry makes "Buy It in Bottles" his best since the Verve's "Lucky Man."
-
UncutAt times he tries too hard, but there's much here to commend. [Nov 2002, p.114]
-
Human Conditions suggests that Ashcroft has forgotten how to rock, choosing to indulge what appears to be a messiah complex.
-
Easily 30 minutes too long and four symphony orchestras too many, Human Conditions feels like a soundtrack to Barnum and Bailey, with Ashcrofts earnest vocals drowned out by a cast of thousands.
