    Disappointing. The lyrics are never as witty as they were before. The orchestration sounds dull and been-there-done-that. Regeneration was little appreciated but a step forward. Absent was a step back and with VIctory, it's another two steps back. And why make this album sooo short?

    Neither wholly satisfying nor wholly great.

    Highly agreeable in small doses. [Jul 2006, p.104]

    The Divine Comedy's most spontaneous record in ages.
