TomH.May 23, 2006Oh, Mission of Burma...you will always have a place in my heart. I can't believe they're a real band again. It's like some sort of dream, and I never want to wake up.

AncientPistolMay 27, 2006Easily the best album of the year. Considering the dreck that seems to pass a popular music these days, this cd shines light into the dark corners of current music in a way that makes you believe that their is hope for aggressive sonic experimentation in music today.

LeeWJun 16, 2006Since this album got such good reviews here, I tried listening to a few songs. "Nancy Reagan" was like hearing The Shaggs fronted by a man having a late mid-life crisis.

MarkD.May 24, 2006Album of the year, thus far. New bands will be weened on this 20 years from now. I can't believe how good it sounds.

PaulH.May 26, 2006Sure critics, go ahead and overpraise that piece of crap from Thursday and ignore a masterpiece like The Obliterati. Suckers. Mission Of Burma are still incredible, and if this doesn't make your best-of-2006 list, I feel sorry for you.

TomCMay 29, 2006This has definitely suprised me. I absolutely love it and cannot stop listening to it. Definitely one of my favorites of the last few months, for sure.

CalmeaTJun 29, 2006Great album! I'd give it an 11 if I could. Way better than OnOffOn and up there with Vs.

SpencerOJun 4, 2006Best album of 2006. MoB proves that their reunion was not a mistake. Still putting out classic rock albums that will be looked back upon as classics. You do yourself a disservice by not going out and buying this album immediatly

[Anonymous]May 23, 2006Scores better than their last album... and their last album was pretty damn good. Solid from beginning to end. Easily one of the best albums of the year.

BlenderA fierce, arty mix of melody and brute clatter. [Jun 2006, p.141]

They’ve managed to produce the best American rock record of the year so far.

The melodic yet dissonant sea of guitar attack Burma brings to the table sounds arguably more relevant today than it did 20 years ago.
