The Ghouls of Ghost B.C. are, first and foremost, putting on a show (as evidenced by the bombastic live show recorded here), and the winking song selections and dramatic musical choices of If You Have Ghost continue that grand stage performance.- Consequence

On a major label debut, there is very little room to mess around and get experimental, but that's precisely what he's done. It's not a great effort from either end of the duo, and it frankly leaves one wondering what could have been for such a promising pair.- Consequence

At 14 tracks, The Light of the Sun would have fared better if cut by three or four numbers. But that's why god invented the skip button.- Consequence

Gold Cobra props itself up as the best thing we've seen from our most hated band since even 1997, and the two albums following that had enough singles to fill a greatest hits compilation one record ahead of schedule.- Consequence

It’s a rare glimpse into Kaufman’s methodology--one that will make uninitiated listeners wonder, “Aren’t comedy albums supposed to be funny?”- Consequence

If Alopecia was the perfect fit sonically and thematically for Wolf's verbal diarrhea, then Mumps comes off more like a scattered greatest hits record than an album with a preconceived vision.- Consequence

At times, the music is playing it a little too safe under the reverb. More dynamics or a bit more vastness in the sound might've elevated tracks like "New Dawn" and "Violent Cries".- Consequence

The album may have its shortcomings, but in the end it is a solid statement on his appreciation for varying forms of production and his intent to further embed these during his live sets and upcoming studio albums.- Consequence

An eerie dose of deep electronics, Warm Pulse is another step in the right direction for two producers building their own audience.- Consequence

The peaks overshadow the valleys here, leaving an adequate showing from a guy who deserves to be taken more seriously than his looks and background might warrant.- Consequence

There are some great moments in New Wave revisionism. But, in the end, it isn't all that memorable, just something fun to toss on every once in a while.- Consequence

The duo has shed a lot of the excess sunshine, but the aspects of Condale that made it so irresistible,the knack for melody and the earnest tales of young love, still find a home on Always.- Consequence

It’s neither better nor worse than Dream, but for all that talk of “pushing through four dimensions” (“Surround Sound”), the album remains planted in its comfort zone.- Consequence

Elsewhere, he mistakes AOR-ready sentimentality and banal lyrics for perfect summer-album material, which seems like a misdirected pursuit--Within and Without already was a near-perfect summer album.- Consequence
