Oct 10, 2014Jamie T bares his soul on Carry On The Grudge to the point that, by the end, it’s almost impossible not to love him for it.
-
Oct 10, 2014Carry On The Grudge could so easily buckle under the weight of expectation. As it is, it feels like the most natural of follow-ups.

MojoOct 10, 2014This is a record that rewards digging into Treays' melodic moods and lyrical follies. It is also a staggering collection of exceptional songs. [Oct 2014, p.86]
