    Slow, stark tracks like Kick-Around Johnny sound like a spun-out, confessional Lou Reed, and there's epiphany too: I Came To Tell You In Plain English (I'm Leaving You) is casually devastating. [Jan 2021, p.90]

    The music on Magic Touch itself is loose and a little gritty, with the group as a whole sounding a little raw and rough on the edges.

    He sings in a hushed, fragile whisper that is a;most unbearably personal. [Mar 2021, p.35]

    Going from an awful opening half to a solid backend was hard enough, but the real villain of Magic Touch is Name’s bitter perspective. On an album about breaking up and getting back together, he isn’t a narrator that you want to spend time around.
