The music... still has the from-odd-angles of Smog records, but now there's exquisite light amid the shade. [Jun 2007, p.114]- Mojo

- Critic Score
Although the album is marred by its over-consistent tone, almost any one of these songs taken in isolation--played of the closing credits of The Sopranos, say--would rightfully be hailed as a lost classic. [May 2007, p.118]- Mojo

This is unmistakeably the Arctics, only stronger, harder, sharper, faster.... An extraordinary and fulfilling sequel to their debut. [May 2007, p.100]- Mojo

Full of regret, hard-won wisdom and DIY pop artistry, No Need To Be Downhearted transcends bog-standard indie to build a world of sophisticated melody and ingenious arrangements. [May 2007, p.112]- Mojo

Best of all is Sleep Together: like Radiohead playing Kashmir, and brilliantly led by former Japan keyboard player Richard Barbieri. Yes, prog lives--and Porcupine Tree are its leading players. [July 2007]- Mojo

There's a sense of going too far, of antic hilarity tipping into something more revealing. [Apr 2007, p.104]- Mojo

Cassadaga is an album to warm souls, rally minds and break hearts in equal measure. [May 2007, p.110]- Mojo

The sound might be spacier and more panoramic, but there's still some grit in the mix. [May 2007, p.110]- Mojo

Seduces with a mixture of whimsical beauty and compelling mystery. [Jun 2007, p.101]- Mojo

Their music has a heavier gait, like a cross between a crazed Triffids and a stroppier Bad Seeds. [Oct 2006, p.102]- Mojo

Because Of The Times burns with all the invention and ambition that seemed to have been sucked out of its predecessor. [May 2007, p.108]- Mojo
-
- Critic Score
It's conceived, written and designed for the loud appreciation of sweat-drenched pill-poppers at a 'nitespot' nowhere near you. And as such, it succeeds in magnificently silly style. [Feb 2007, p.100]- Mojo

- Critic Score
An energised splicing of riff, declamation and technology that sounds like a thrilling synthesis of 2003's The Real New Fall LP and 2005's Fall Heads Roll, delivered with the highest levels of vigour for some time. [Feb 2007, p.92]- Mojo

A record that sounds like absolutely no one else on the planet. [May 2007, p.102]- Mojo

A big-tableau statement that combines his musical and ideological passions. [May 2007, p.106]- Mojo

Overall, the album might not surpass his masterpiece The Mysterious Production Of Eggs, but Armchair Apocrypha proves Bird's knack for the musical hat-trick. [May 2007, p.102]- Mojo

El-P's portentous delivery lacks poetics. [May 2007, p.110]- Mojo

The ballads bewitch, reminding us that Tracey is one of the unique British voices, up there with Dusty. [Apr 2007, p.100]- Mojo

[Introducing] contains her best songs and most relaxed, assured performances. [May 2007, p.112]- Mojo
