Reviews

Spin (p.118) - "[M]ajestic ballads like 'Come Undone' prove that this Scottish quartet's dark musings can still unnerve."

Entertainment Weekly (p.74) - "[H]alfway through, the harmonious majesty of previous records like THE GREAT EASTERN returns." - Grade: B-

Mojo (p.114) - 4 stars out of 5 - "UNIVERSAL AUDIO's indie sweetness conceals a dark, deathly heart....[With] modern voices of angst whispering the internal dialogues of madness under cyclical rhythms of piano and guitar, drum stomp and keyboard stutter."

Uncut (p.104) - 3 stars out of 5 - "[A]t their best they seem like a band newly inspired by the possibilities of simplicity."

Magnet (p.98) - "The Delgados certainly haven't abandoned their inclination toward experimentation, daubing this dream pop with vintage keyboard sounds, backward effects and the stray trumpet or cello."

CMJ (p.5) - "Returning to the more direct melodic pop of their earlier work, the disc is still awash in atmosphere - concise and direct, yet just as gorgeous."
