    Superbly eerie and echoey evocations such as View From The Mirror and The Golden Bough don't need big productions to make your ears prick up, just their disturbing use of minor chords and subtle sound effects. [Dec 2014, p.90]

    It's easily enough to leave you wishing The Coral would get their distinctive acts together again soon. [Dec 2014, p.108]

    The group really did a fine job of crafting something low-key and gloomy here.

    The Curse Of Love is a neat record, filled with the mystic folk and lithe psychedelia that made them so refreshing back in the day.

    For the most part The Curse of Love doesn’t offer any of the pop hooks that made early Coral albums so enjoyable.
