Record CollectorMay 19, 2025It's an album which rewards repeat visits, and whose creator sounds more vibrant than a man of his noble vintage has any right to do. [Jun 2025, p.104]
-
UncutMay 19, 2025A deliciously bubbling cauldron seasoned with ladles of Scott Walker melodrama and a generously pinch of Bowie-inspired balladry. [May 2025, p.33]

MojoMay 19, 2025It's all high drama, dark figures and wild impulses - hugely entertaining, but when Muphy sings "this is the meaning of my life", you don't doubt it for a second. [Jun 2025, p.86]
