    The reality is Free Energy sound like ’90s rock berks Terrorvision. It’s not all woe--‘Bad Stuff’ is like an FM rock Pavement--but it makes us worry that Murphy might be losing his edge.
  2. Drowned In Sound
    60
    You’d need DNA evidence to separate Free Energy from the influences they’re so clearly in thrall of, but it’s all so blusteringly fun and care-free that they make you feel like a curmudgeon for even contemplating giving a shit.
  3. The Boston Phoenix
    50
    The rest of the album, which was produced by James Murphy of LCD Soundsystem, never quite lives up to that early peak.
