MagnetJun 18, 2014Lion is Murphy's most enraged, engaged and engaging album. [No. 110, p.57]
-
Jun 18, 2014Lion is certainly king of its own dark and sublime, concrete industrial jungle. It roars strong and, at times, purrs in all the right places.
-
Jul 15, 2014eter Murphy’s once again located the razor-thin line between restraint and complete unhingedness that he hasn’t walked since Bauhaus’ first time around, and following his recent exploits has never felt more rewarding.
-
Jun 18, 20142011's Ninth was the leanest and most immediate collection of new material from Peter Murphy to arrive since the late '90s, and Lion, his tenth long-player, while a much different animal (pun intended) sonically, goes for the jugular in a similar fashion.
-
Jul 1, 2014Lion is overflowing with vitality, crunch, volume, emoting, and everything that makes Peter Murphy himself.
-
Classic Rock MagazineDec 18, 2014Trent Reznor's past production has leaned Murphy towards an industrial sound, which Youth's turn as producer adds techno overdrive to. [Summer 2014, p.91]
-
Sep 4, 2014Given both men's positions as post-punk and goth progenitors, Lion sadly isn't up to snuff with the black magic these two have been so capable of creating in the past.
