    Somebody’s Knocking is marginally more rockin’ than 2017’s uninspired Gargoyle – due to a slightly increased emphasis on guitar – but it doesn’t measure up to 2014’s Phantom Radio (or its EP companion No Bells On Sunday). [Oct 2019, p.63]

Disbelief Suspension and Radio Silence are the only memorable songs {and they're far from his best}.. Everything else just fails to leave any lasting impression sadly. Full Review »

    Great album, the best album after the Blues Funeral, that to me, is the best of his career.
