    Another album, another triumph, then, and rarely more richly deserved. [Summer 2019, p.84]

    The follow-up is even better, delivered with a greater confidence and urgency, and featuring a handful of songs that almost match up to his late-70s output.

    On this taut, pithy set he offers sardonic observations of human folly. [Jul 2019, p.93]

    Humanworld is every bit as good as, and at points even better than, its predecessor, as though Parrett's finally, almost five decades in, found his true metier. [Jul 2019, p.32]

    Both this record and How the West was Won would have been notable just because Perrett was still alive and making music again; the high level of the music he's actually making mean that they are both vital transmissions from one of the great lost talents of the punk era.

    A true master in career-best form. [Summer 2019, p.112]

    12 tracks, and none breaking four minutes – so no idea is wrung dry, and nothing overplayed. Long may the late flowering of Perrett continue.
