This time, the division between uninspired, joyless Gang Starr pastiches like Don't Say Nuthin and the polymorphous likes of Stay Cool or Outro has never sounded so glaringly obvious. [Aug 2004, p.92]- Mojo

Not as immediate as the previous two albums, this one takes time before its effortless flow, interweaving harmonies and low-key chords really sink in. [Aug 2004, p.102]- Mojo

The recorded-live-by-candlelight performances documented herein aren't short on the kind of clamorous foreboding and twisted pop nous a fan of Disintegration or The Head On The Door might hope for. [Aug 2004, p.87]- Mojo

Though the detail in these blurred vignettes sometimes upstages the foreground, the moments of magic make the odd longueur worth enduring. [Sep 2004, p.95]- Mojo

There's nothing here that elevates the Goodies above the level of the ordinary. [Aug 2004, p.96]- Mojo
-
- Critic Score
Wide, sprawling, often anxious canvases that deliver the same rebel-hearted romanticism, promises of social insurrection, and weary stream-of-consciousness confessionals he's been turning out for years. [Aug 2004, p.89]- Mojo

Drifts somewhere between Mogwai's softest moments and Her Space Holiday's wry prettiness. [Aug 2004, p.101]- Mojo

He puts down the rumour-mongers with an acid tongue. [Nov 2004, p.100]- Mojo

Isn't an easy listen but those with an adventurous ear will be well rewarded. [Aug 2004, p.101]- Mojo

Richman gets more reflective with age. [Aug 2004, p.86]- Mojo

It's as good as anything in this group's monstrous catalogue. [Dec 2003, p.120]- Mojo

Sonic Nurse is not... a classic rock record. And it's not a classic Sonic Youth record. It's an excursion, into corners weird and corners familiar. [Jun 2004, p.100]- Mojo

Farrar has rarely sounded so stirring on record. [Aug 2004, p.89]- Mojo

A big wet dream of loss and isolation, sex and the search for grace. [May 2004, p.92]- Mojo

At times, it's almost too tasteful a refinement of her work.... Yet there are some fabulous moments from both sides of Harvey's brain. [Jun 2004, p.100]- Mojo

Repeated plays reveal a frustrating lack of memorable songs. [Nov 2004, p.102]- Mojo

Suffers from a paucity of premium standalone songs.... way too relentlessly generic. [Mar 2004, p.101]- Mojo

Melds way-out weird with a pop welcome that sounds like no one else around right now. [May 2004, p.105]- Mojo

It's not as spiky or sleazy as 2001's superlative Kittenz And Thee Glitz... but this is shiny, addictive pop that's never lost for a good tune. [Jun 2004, p.114]- Mojo

Somewhere Only We Know is one of 2004's loveliest tunes, and while nothing else on their debut album quite matches this apogee of woebegone non-energy, there's plenty to keep the eyes welling up. [Jun 2004, p.116]- Mojo

Tired and contrived-sounding.... Baptism? Craptism, more like. [Jun 2004, p.102]- Mojo
