    Utter brilliance! Stumbled upon this album well after its release, it deserved more publicity when it was released.

    This review contains spoilers. This album ticks all MY boxes. Just a joy to listen to. I'm a huge Radiohead fan and after listening to this album I thought there was similarities. Amazing they both come from Oxford.… Collapse

    It’s a record that captures the anxious state of the world and shows a more fragile Gaz Coombes, far removed from the happy-go-lucky teenager who wrote ‘Caught By The Fuzz’ and ‘Alright’.

    This is a highly accomplished and deeply felt third album to add to an already auspicious Gaz Coombes canon. He is on fine form at the moment, undoubtedly one of Britpop’s Strongest Men.

    Here, the former Supergrass leader is so busy trying to prove something with his lofty themes and overreaching stylisation, that all of the magic is lost.
