Oct 16, 2014I Forget Where We Were is an album to grow into rather than one of instant satisfaction, one that blossoms upon every subsequent listen, one to clutch close to your heart and cherish forever.

Q MagazineOct 29, 2014Musically adventurous, sonically daring and really rather stunning. [Nov 2014, p.112]

MojoNov 19, 2014A challenging move from such a young artist who deserves to have his fans take a leap of faith. [Dec 2014, p.94]

Oct 20, 2014Howard expects you to meet him on his own terms and provides just enough aural enticement to give him not just one listen but a second, which is when I Forget Where We Were really begins to sink in its hooks.

Oct 19, 2014[I Forget Where We Were] hangs together well, his David Gray/Damien Rice-like vocals resting on a bed of skittering drums, crafty guitar and fedback chords. Individual tracks take their time to get going (only one song here comes in under four minutes) and numbers such as opener Small Things break after two or three minutes to build back up from a pleasant plod to a sustained fug of sound.
