    Witty, tragi-comic lyrics layered over busy beats, strings and electronic flourishes which never sacrifice intimacy. [Nov 2005, p.114]
  2. It's far from a poor record - the sole problem is that a number of songs do blur together, forming more of an aural whitewash than the technicolour trip some had predicted.
  3. Should go down well with listeners who like their singers to take break-ups badly. [Nov 2005, p.125]
  4. Past Presents the Future falters between a coalesced pop sound and its pristine fragments.
