    Ironic now that post-9/11 political protest is in full swing Radio 4 make their most passive and soul-less record to date. You only hope that live they can salvage some of the magic displayed on 2001's 'Gotham!'

    The worst record I have hear din years. I wanted to turn it off after the second song, but kept it in hoping to find any redeeming value in this. I want an hour of my life back, please.

    Unlike other would-be indie-dance pretenders, this is properly danceable stuff; fat basses and catchy percussion beats are punctured by intoxicating keyboard motifs.

    If you'd never heard Gotham!, you might very well find much to like about Stealing of a Nation.

    Roman's politically spiked lyrics sound shrugged-off and flimsy. [Sep 2004, p.141]
