  1. Uncut
    100
    This is surprisingly, refreshingly, "modern" music. [Mar 2002, p.104]
  2. Alternative Press
    80
    As stylishly remote, timelessly constructed and challengingly intelligent as you'd expect from artists like these. [May 2002, p.83]
  3. While there's no question that this is rooted in the '80s (not always a good thing), when the two concentrate on songs, it sounds mighty good.
  4. Hopefully, Buzzcocks, Magazine, and Luxuria fans will approach this material with open minds because, while it lacks the visceral punch of those bands' work, Buzzkunst proves that Shelley and Devoto still have a lot to offer their fans -- and each other.
  5. Buzzkunst doesn't exactly offer any revelatory music, but it certainly is good, sometimes even great.
