    Pale Green Ghosts reaches a personal level that can feel fascinatingly intimate or witheringly so. [Jun-Jul 2013, p.93]

    An album of endless revelations, its dry wit and dreamy tunes suggest a mash-up between Pet Shop Boys and Jimmy Webb.

    The production has a pristine, streamlined quality, with Grant’s vocals high in the mix, so the album’s blend of orchestral and squelchy electronic arrangements mirrors the clarity and grace with which he delivers his crude, self-lacerating ballads.
