    If there were any criticism to be leveled at this album, it's that it is a little bland around the edges.

    The only emotion here is the hothouse loneliness of an overintellectualized mind. [Nov 2006, p.154]

    The results, while never quite suggesting imminent breakthrough, are sometimes elegiac. [Nov 2006, p.147]
