  1. System goes down smooth, even if it's rather strange that it is so nostalgic for the pre-Clinton '90s, but this is so much a production piece that, apart from the acoustic 'Rolling,' the only song that stands outside of the sheer sonic gloss is 'Wedding Day,' a genuinely odd piece of kitsch duet with Heidi herself.
  2. People who like him, rejoice. Those who don't may continue to live without his music.
  3. Price's remix work has always been more impressive than his original productions and System is no exception.
  4. Q Magazine

    System is a one-paced, staid affair, where almost everything suggests a tired version of Seal's first hit, 'Killer.'

    System is like travelling backwards to a time when Trevor Horn and Steve Lipson ruled the earth, except this time the studio overlord is Madonna collaborator, Stuart Price. [Jan 2008, p.100]
