  1. Q Magazine
    80
    Imagine if a Morrissey-style frontman--sharp, tender and taboo-breaking--was also sexual. [May 2003, p.107]
  2. Delusions of Adequacy
    80
    More religious text and tapestry than commercial pop folk, The Smell of Our Own charts its own territory through the heart and head and holes of celebratory love. Truly unique.

    The album almost sounds like an original cast recording of a musical -- the next best thing to being there, but not the same by a long shot.
