    Pollie's sulky tenor is perfectly suited to these tales of heartache and lost affection, with muted backing tracks that intensify the tear-soaked scenarios that bring him solace. [No. 142, p.57]

    None of these songs reach that lofty level [of Paul McCartney, Brian Wilson and Randy Newman], but fans of inward-looking popsmiths like Elliott Smith and Daniel Johnston (whose artwork gets a subtle nod through the graphics) will find some gentle little gems in this police department lost-and-found.

    These are striking, expertly crafted songs containing left-field bridges and curious diversions, and the result is a memorable record from start to finish.

    Overall, Pollie presents a wistful and warm little microcosm that subtly builds on the foundation of his debut.
