A brave and inventive album that refuses to be held down by conventional barriers of genre or style.
-
This time the group finds a better balance of the simple and the strange, making Loud Like Nature their most exciting album since Avant Hard.
-
Compelling. Devastating. Amazing. And rocks like a bastard.
-
ResonanceThis is some of the most fascinating stuff that these freaks of nature have come up with yet. [#36, p.62]
-
MojoHas more to do with Primal Scream's Evil heat than any arched-eyebrow electro-clashers. [Dec 2002, p.113]
-
Alternative PressLoud Like Nature contains all the traits that make Add N To (X) so captivating: blood, brains and lots of loin friction. [Dec 2002, p.77]
-
Add N to (X) have retained their sense of direction and honed their sound into a powerful and persuasive entity.
-
Q MagazineThis is an album which manages the rare trick of being accessible and head-warpingly barmy both at the same time. [Nov 2002, p.96]
-
"Loud Like Nature" is hard to take seriously, but it shows that those old analog treasures still have a few good songs left in them.
-
All this variety is to be commended, but a lot of the tracks here sound like unfinished sketches.

BenjaminBunnyAug 12, 2003Not anywhere as fresh or exciting as their first two records, "Loud Like Nature" continues their slow descent into listenable blandness.
