  1. Dusted Magazine

    It isn't as succint, and heart-wrenching, as Someday... and it may not have the slicing modernity of HNIA's earlier works, but the idea of the project propels it still.
  2. PopMatters
    80
    Some of their finest work to date.
  3. Stylus Magazine
    74
    Last Night sacrifices the unified statement of Someday for a more varied, deliriously fun lack of coherency.
  4. Uncut
    60
    Less startling than its predecessor Ft Lake, but it's still a brave departure for a 4AD band previously synonymous with ethereal whimsy. [Nov 2002, p.118]
