Score distribution:
  1. Positive: 21 out of 23
  2. Negative: 0 out of 23
  1. There's something captivating about the project, and you will find yourself returning to the album over and over again.
  2. Anyone expecting any of the more experimental tangential qualities of the German group will be disappointed, as will anyone expecting intense lyrical workouts from Smith. Instead we have an extremely convincing whistlestop tour round current electronic music with a partially deranged, completely eccentric lexicographer raving brilliantly over the top.
  3. It's not brilliant, and some tracks are just dumb. [Jun 2007, p.156]

    I've been a mouse on mars listener for 10 years now, and it's always a surprise for me listening to a new record by them, but this is really something. I didn't know who this mark e. smith guy was until von sudenfed but now I'm a believer. I'm so happy of having this album, i am a more happy person since this came out, it's organized chaos, the ghost in the machine, eclectic calculated sounds vs rants and fun fun fun, believe ive listened ALL of the good 07 albums, lcd soundsystem, year zero, amon tobin, battles,arcade fire etc...and this is the best so far...why else i am writing this?? im not from domino i swear. excellent album.

    I've been a Fall fan for as long as i can remember and for years now the critics have been saying that every new album is a 'return to form'. This album is more than that, after living with it for a month now i'd say it rates in the best 5 albums Mark E Smith has ever made. Expand

    Probably my favourite album of 2007 because it is awkward, danceable, interesting and prepared to take risks, please go out and buy it. MES after all these years is one of the only artists who can truly say he has never sold out. And the guys from Mouse on Mars live up to his genius. Expand
