    A solid album with great guest appearances. The sardonic humor & infectious melodiers we have come to expect from Scott & Co. are plentiful. It doesn't leave previous releases in the dust, but it certainly will not disappoint.

    Among last albums I bought this is one of my favourite (but also Morrissey, J. Johnson, Coxon, Stereolab...)

    Enjoyable for the most part, but never spectacular.

    Call The Minus 5 a greatest hits package full of all new tunes.

    A good-time, classic rock feel permeates [the album]. [11 Feb 2006]

    Mr. McCaughey's songs hark back to that 60's moment when exuberant backbeat rock 'n' roll was showing the initial effects of acid. [6 Feb 2006]
