    Anchored by Jah Wobble's bass math and adorned with lots of guests, this is one chill album that still refuses to be background music. Middle Eastern influence here, guitar stutter there, a cloud of vocals over there, found samples back there - the title may make you expect something more frenzied, but all is forgiven by track two. Well done.

    It's Wobble's unmistakable geometric bass patterns which anchor these 11 collaborative tracks. [Apr 2020, p.89]

    Naturally, it's an immaculately stoned affair. ... You might not be able to teach old punks new tricks, but who cares when they perform as well as this. [May 2020, p.115]

    The record features contributions from a host of their pals, such as The Orb's Alex Paterson on the blissed-out "Burnt Umber," writer Vivien Goldman on Bizarro Bond-theme "Rhino" and Alabama 3's Aurora Dawn on reggae spiritual "Keep On Moving." [Apr 2020, p.37]
