    Those three seconds of stuttering electronica simply take their reputation for leftfield experimentalism too far. Thankfully, such wilful pretension buggers off, and the rest is a more quality-controlled set.

    They've taken their time, but this fine record suggests it may not be too late. [May 2011, p.124]

    Where the remainder deviates, though, is in its lyricism, a good thing, because the beer-boys-in-the-band stance is replaced by only-to-be-encouraged attempts at social comment and a more enlightened approach to gender politics. [May 2011, p.110]

    There are one or two new ventures into the unknown, but by and large, The Pigeon Detectives haven't made enough progression from Emergency.
