Gena Olivier's pallid vocals sound frozen stiff rather than disaffectedly cool by the halfway stage. [Feb 2005, p.78]- Uncut

The Libertines is a record of such raw autobiographical honesty that it carries a weight few others in 2004 can match. [Album of the Month, Sep 2004, p.94]- Uncut

The Radio Dept. recall that giddy moment before sounding like the Stones was considered revelatory. Only these Swedes re-tweak the formula, sounding, if anything, better than Ride, Slowdive, Lush, Boo Radleys et al. [Sep 2004, p.100]- Uncut

Hones the Southern harmonies and guitar-pickin' crosstalk of the brothers Good. [Nov 2004, p.116]- Uncut

They've managed to retain everything that was oddly beguiling about them in the first place while boosting their mass appeal with a production that is all West Coast sleek and radio-friendly lustrous. [Feb 2005, p.80]- Uncut

Terrifically thorough. [Nov 2004, p.131]- Uncut

[A] disappointing move into bland, dinner-party-backdrop territory. [Nov 2004, p.106]- Uncut

Thrashes to the classic American assembly-line rock of Springsteen and the choppy pop of early Nick Lowe/Joe Jackson. [June 2004, p.88]- Uncut

A sleek and satisfying sixth album--their best since 1994's Snivilisation. [Jul 2004, p.110]- Uncut

It's a departure from previous Lanegan solo LPs... This time, Lanegan is looser, open to both experimentation and, once more, full-on rock. [Sep 2004, p.96]- Uncut

There's a commitment here to melody as much as left-field wrapping. [Nov 2004, p.105]- Uncut

Carr's ambitions outrun his abilities. [Sep 2004, p.98]- Uncut
