    The lone misstep is Bernard Butler's Not Alone, which without soaring strings loses much of its defining defiance. Caveat aside, this is an album of warmth and depth. [May 2026, p.74]

    Three singular voices, one might murmuration. [May 2026, p.90]

    Gentler hues are to the fore on the soft strum and harmonies of Teenage Fanclub's "Lonely Night", coming as near as dammit to an indie Crosby, Stills & Nash. They veer from the template just once, on the slow country rock of "Me And Magdalena". [Apr 2026, p.26]

    Butler's increasingly woodsy timbre serves People Move On nicely. It's not as stirring, with Butler's intimate tilt at post-Suede liberation anthem Not Alone losing the original's euphoric flush, though the trio's euphonious harmonies prove reliable - if occasionally drowsy - elsewhere. [Apr 2026, p.105]
