Robyn Hitchcock doesn't really make bad albums, but he doesn't always make legitimately great ones; Propellor Time thankfully feels like one of the high-watermarks of his post-millennial body of work, and it's beautiful, essential listening.

UncutThis album finds him in complete mastery of his musical range and lyrical fancies. [Apr 2010, p.91]

The album's most catchy, melodic moment is a darkly humorous societal commentary called "Sickie Boy." Hitchcock truly has seemed to hit his stride with the Venus 3. Here's hoping we get more songs from home in the near future.
