UncutJun 15, 2018It's not revolutionary, but there's not a duff track to be found. [Aug 2018, p.24]
-
Jun 15, 2018With the fountain of material springing out of Newcombe's Berlin studio in the first part of the 2010s, the quality level has been rather hit or miss, but Something Else is a solid effort and somewhat of a return to form for the veteran band.

Classic Rock MagazineJun 25, 2018It finds them on classic BJM form--a warm, densely analogue journey through inner space punctuated by churchy keyboards and tambourines that rattle like bones. [Summer 2018, p.86]
