    Oizo's latest effort easily becomes the pitch-perfect soundtrack to an epic night out, reminding us that these cats across the pond know exactly how to make electronic music seem both strange and familiar, music that practically anyone can enjoy.

    This is a hyperactive but genuinely exciting listen.
  4. New Musical Express (NME)

    Freshly hooked-up with Ed Banger, Oizo has made a joyously daft party album.
  5. Drowned In Sound
    70
    While Lambs Anger is in no way easy, brimming with first-degree sonic battery, it is compulsively listenable, and is most likely his, and Ed Banger's, best album to date.

    He takes Lambs Anger's used parts and models them compressing keyboard sounds and looped samples into a sci-fi party mix. [Feb 2009, p.82]

    As good as some of the tracks are, it's just discouraging to think how solid the record could've been if it had been just ten tracks of more fleshed-out material.
  8. Uncut

    Lambs Anger zig-zags from the sublime to the silly. [Feb 2009, p.89]

  9. Q Magazine

    His forth album is accessible, furnishing his glitchy sound with nagging hooks, funky flourishes, and some proper tunes indeed. [Feb 2009, p.115]

  10. PopMatters

    Even as Lambs Anger rides the wave of '80s nostalgia to respectable income and momentarily elevated social status, long-time fans will scratch their heads and pine for the old days, and they are right to do so.
