    The effects were as original as always. The tunes were mainly non exsistent, with only a couple I want to here again. Sounded like a album of B sides from Beck or maybe Pavement.

    Think of it as more of a mix tape because the British quintet's jam-band explorations dip into everything from Beatles-esque pop and Delta-blues-influenced ballads.

    On most of Split The Difference... Gomez pour on the punch that makes their live shows such a gas. [27 May 2004, p.82]

    In looking beyond pure innovation, Gomez have poured some heart into their blues.
