    Despite his plunderphonic techniques, he’s a classic pop songwriter, and The Scene Between comes awfully close to being a classic pop album.

    The Scene Between isn't the Go! Team's best, but it is an impressive new start that consolidates most of their strengths in a bright shiny ball and sends the band shooting off in a brilliant new-ish direction.

    Ian Parton's picked up Young Guv’s gauntlet and made the power-pop album of the year.

    It’s a cohesive listen that doesn't quite translate into a cohesive statement of purpose.

    The Scene Between is a happy remedy to a cynical industry and scary, un-groovy world. One listen and you'll be transported back to your teens--when some sunshine and a little dance would cure all.

    These saccharine tunes and too-cute melodies could desperately use some of the band's old abrasive edge.
