    Canny, foundation-shaking urban pop. [Jun 2015, p.91]

    This is UK bass music at its best.

    All in all, When The Night Comes is unsettlingly monitored and controlled--but that kind of discomfort makes for a pleasantly digestible experience.

    It's the instrumentals that impress the most.

    He has a weakness for think, hackneyed lyrics, but a flair for inspired juxtapositions, too. [Jul 2015, p.71]

    The upped slickness does mean the album offers little in the way of the provocative, though, so you may be disappointed by Breakage's leniency, and a wrath that's merely implied.

    Boyle is still at his strongest when he opts to bring the noise. [Jul 2015, p.102]
