UncutApr 27, 2016While there's a hefty serving of funk on "The Clone," Sherwood keeps his distance, bringing space to psycho-ballads such as "Abracadabra" and "Monocle Man" as the pair reassembled their skeletal, wheezing pop in intriguing new forms. [Jun 2016, p.74]

MojoApr 22, 2016[An] Ubu-sinister psychedelic LP. [May 2016, p.96]
