    Minimal and huge at the same time, desperately sad in places, thought-provoking and ethereal in others, this is an incredible milestone of a record.
  2. New Musical Express (NME)
    80
    It's a brave and curious record that, as on 'Bugs', occasionally resembles Willie Nelson fronting Labradford.
  3. Neumu.net
    80
    Lounge-rock for world-weary sophisticates.
  4. Rolling Stone
    60
    With repeated listens, what feels at first like unmelodic obduracy reveals some hidden charms.

    Just kept replaying it, however not as many times as Nixon

    This is a slow, slow burn - especially if you're coming straight after the relative euphoria of Nixon. But give it a few listens and it'll sneak up and strangle you in it's relaxed, measured splendour. … Expand
