    V is a welcome return to the consistency of I and II, being an elegant return to form for Blackfield while brightening their sound just enough to remain recognizable.

    The album's tempo could have been more varied, but that's a small complaint; there's plenty to enjoy here.

    Strings stutter and fall, the tone can best be described as lush, gentle and reassuring.

    There's a luxurious, albeit sometimes cloying, warmth throughout. [May 2017, p.100]
