    quietness, clicks, and drones, and beats to keep it moving, the occasional voice only distracts

    I'd call this ambient. great for a long commute. Will nicely knumb your brain for that gross bus ride.

    This album is really good to hear from start to end. Each song is related to the other in some way.

    Fleischmann goes to the same well perhaps a little too often here… but if the well is full of something that tastes good, why wouldn’t you go there as often as you can?

    The Humbucking Coil doesn't really tread any new ground for Fleischmann, but it's another enjoyable and solid little release in his discography.

    The Humbucking Coil's captivating soundscapes evoke more emotion via machines than most bands can with "real" instruments. [Mar 2006, p.138]
