  1. Uncut
    40
    Carr's ambitions outrun his abilities. [Sep 2004, p.98]
  2. Mojo
    40
    The results are strangely disorientating and at times Carr's brittle, acoustic sketches are smothered by skull-jarring percussion. [Sep 2004, p.92]
  3. New Musical Express (NME)
    40
    With only three 'songs' to speak of here, 'All Watched Over...' smacks of another great British songwriter having their melodic nous chewed away by electro-moths. [7 Aug 2004, p.49]
  4. Carr has always wanted to create his very own sound, and for the first time we are starting to hear it here.
  5. It's certainly a fact that he currently errs on the side of tweeness.
  6. Q Magazine
    70
    Were he only able to drop the naff drum machines, this would be a classier piece of classicism all round. [Sep 2004, p.117]
  7. There’s an obvious self-assurance on AWOBMOLG that’s been increasingly evident on his recent EP releases; a sense of things coming together and evolving into a sound that seems unhurried, unprompted and, best of all, natural.
