    The album was written on the hop, Newcombe spilling his brains right onto tape, and it shows – imperfections are made into a positive, the songs allowed to just naturally come into being.

    Working elsewhere with The Liminanas and in the band L'Epee with them and Emmanuelle Seigner seems to have rejuvenated Anton Newcombe. TheWorking elsewhere with The Liminanas and in the band L'Epee with them and Emmanuelle Seigner seems to have rejuvenated Anton Newcombe. The result is the best BJM album in years. Even the slow tracks have an urgency and verve to them that suggest a fresh spark, and surprisingly uptempo, driving cuts like "Ineffable Mind****" (yes, it seems song titles are still pulled out of Anton's ass and have nothing to do with the song) sweep you up somwhere between jungle and glam. What? I kid you not. To quote cartoon pundits, this kicks ass, and holds more reverb than the Grand Canyon. "Life has done you wrong / so I wrote you all this song / to brighten up your day / and wash your pain away." Yes, please.… Full Review »

    Incredible album with incredible sound. This is why my wife and I bought a Vinyl record player. Anton is a force of nature.

    Mejor producción que álbumes anteriores y temas más diferentes que en álbumes anteriores sin perder la esencia. Un 9.
