  1. Village Voice (Consumer Guide)

    The voice asserts itself as the record sinks in, however, and not only does each song stand out, but the production variegates a sonic grandeur grounded in the rock verities.

    As you're listening, the songs begin to sound more and more like play-acting, as if Malin's trying to sound like his heroes more than he's trying to create anything that's all his own.

    Malin and Adams have managed to create a record whose fearless classicism is all part of the point. [Dec 2002, p.114]
