    Not as instant as their début, but on repeated listenings, it becomes just as rewarding....... can't wait for album no. 3.

    Very solid second album from the Irish indie rockers. Although lyrically it is pretty flaky, the tunes on here are top notch and it was a huge progression forward from their eponymous debut album. Showed real potential to become a to band and make a really great record at some point in their career. Unfortunately this was their last effort. Well worth checking out.

    An impressive consolidation rather than a startling revelation.

    The appealing immediacy evident on the debut is smothered by the overbearing production. [Nov 2002, p.118]

    With a secret nod and a flick of an amulet, JJ72 have wandered into Mercury Rev's sacred ground of mystical contemplation.
