    The twelve tracks presented on the eighth Welsh band's album, is - at best -average. The vast majority of compositions are typical and non distinctive from the competition songs. Some, however can catch attention of the listener - even post-punk title track "Freakshow Generation" or single "Borders".

    Generation Freakshow is still an impressive return to form from a band whose members sound revitalized and determined to prove they're not a spent force.

    Even the album's most compelling moments... aren't strong enough to save it. [May 2012, p.98]

    Their eighth studio album, and second on their own label, is another solid, if uninspiring, set.
