80Fascinatingly oblique songs are plaed with confidence and laid-back precision, rather than smothered by a desperation to impress. [Mar 2005, p.96]
-
We Are Little Barrie is a stunning debut for sure, and the kind of record both old-school classic rock dads and groove-loving young kids should be clambering over each other to buy.
-
80Play[s] out like a fresh discovery that's strangely familiar--a '60s soul in a 21st-century outfit.
-
Barrie's wank-free creedo makes for a bright, poppy debut. [20 May 2005, p.77]
-
70Barrie Cadogan is a guitar phenomenon. [Mar 2005, p.102]
-
While the same pared-down, consistent groove that makes Little Barrie such an immediate grabber might play them out quickly, it's a tasty, gristly flavor of the month. [#16, p.126]
-
60So retro it's pratcially an historical document. [Mar 2005, p.100]

57When the recycled smoke clears, Little Barrie could use more songwriting help from their patrons (Moz, [Edwyn] Collins) and less hu-huh inspiration from Ocean Colour Scene's lobotomy-trad bong.
-
In their relentless slavery to the groove, the songs fall hopelessly flat. [12 Feb 2005, p.51]

SatyaT10This is a very promising debut album. I was hooked the first time I heard it. Think of The White Stripes with a touch of funk and extended jams.
