    Sonically cohesive, Uncanny Valley is the sound of a band rediscovering the inspiration that had seemingly been diluted on their sophomore effort.

    Slick production and a consistency in sound may make for easy listening but if you pay too much attention it all starts to sound a bit contrived and cheesy.

    Uncanny Valley is like listening to a latter-day Oasis album: too weakly reminiscent of past achievements to really satisfy.

    Uncanny Valley mostly just splashes around pleasantly in the easy-listening shallows. [Sep 2013, p.91]

    Uncanny Valley is unfortunately too insignificant to escape the looming shadows all around.

    The wan disco of Sugar And Bullets and Another Land's sub Depeche Mode pastiche show a fatal lack of creative daring. [Sep 2013, p.106]
