Atheist's Cornea fares best when shooting for extremes. [Sep 2015, p.73]- Uncut

It's all craftily entertaining, but loopy lead single 'Paris Is Burning' is the one track that escapes pastiche. [Oct 2008, p.94]- Uncut

Wolf's twofold skillfulness and stirring guest performances compensate for the sometimes overcooked arrangements. [Apr 2010, p.109]- Uncut
