    All Time Present is a guitar players album, but more than that, a songwriter’s work.

    Confident and resourceful, All Time Present feels more open than its predecessor. [May 2019, p.54

    While All Time Present moves through various moods and approaches, from Krautrock reenvisioned as rural guitar rock to floating ambience, it remains knowingly tied together by threads of dazzling playing and boundless exploration.

    Forsyth's own voice is used sparingly ... Mostly, though, he lets the fervid lyricism of his guitar be the focus. [May 2019, p.88]

    While Forsyth is mindful to retain his more spontaneous impulses, this wonderfully intense set is dominated by "Techno Top", a pounding 20-minute groove that recalls both Talking Heads and Television. [May 2019, p.29]

    Despite the occasional nod to rock formalism, All Time Present achieves a scope only hinted at on Forsyth’s previous full-lengths.
