Press Reviews

4 out of 5 - "...The addictive melodies of these classic, mostly straightforward pop and glam jams will just hit your bloodstream even quicker... Alternative Press (9/03, p.104)

...The greatest bunch of sonic surrealists to ever set forth from the British Isles just continues to shock and amaze with its perfectly bizarre blends of lush harmonies, magical melodies, electronic over-and-undertones and complex song construction tactics... CMJ (07/07/03, p.6)

...The luminous orchestrations and harmonies counterbalance bleak observations about radiation poisoning, holy wars, and 'pretty pictures of starvation'..." - Rating: B Entertainment Weekly (07/18/03, p.76)

4 out of 5 stars - "...PHANTOM POWER is a fabulous record, a baffling, joyful, touching, frustrating, silly, totally seductive album that you can lose yourself in for an hour, a day, a week... Mojo (08/03, p.92)

...Tempers the giddy IMAX ambition of 2001's RINGS AROUND THE WORLD with some art-house despair....the band reprogram decades of pop history for iPod shuffle-play, and styles from electronica to country fade in and out like an old man's memory..." - Grade: A Spin (08/03, p.113)

4 out of 5 stars - "...An album of hope and humour and beauty, PHANTOM POWER is frequently as deep and mysterious as its title intimates. Feel it for yourself... Uncut (8/03, p.100)
