Entertainment Reviews:

Spin - 1/03, p.73

Ranked #39 on Spin's list of 2002's "Albums of the Year"

Spin - 4/02, p.125

9 out of 10 - "...An ornate ecology concept album...They're hi-tech futurists who pay tribute to obscure '60s and '70s vinyl....It's arty, smart, 'fun' rock...And they sure know how to super-size..."

Entertainment Weekly - 3/29/02, pp.71-72

"...Recalls a lost Brian Wilson-style psychedelic marvel, complete with blankets of harmony, multilaytered orchestration, and labyrinthine structures....a thrilling exploration..." - Rating: A-

Uncut - 8/01, p.90

4 stars out of 5 - "...Their fifth and best album....Accessible and adventurous, RINGS...ponders concepts of connection and hybidisation while musically exploiting them....RINGS AROUND THE WORLD expands the reach, but keeps the spirit..."

Alternative Press - 5/02, p.98

7 out of 10 - "...There's no doubt their musical literacy is impressive....Rhys' death-metal growl on the climax of 'Receptacle For The Respectable' is simply rad..."

CMJ - 3/18/02, p.4

"...Another instant classic, an album that sounds more polished than previous efforts but is no less brilliant for it..."

Mojo (Publisher) - p.61

Ranked #44 in Mojo's "100 Modern Classics" -- "[A] cohesive conceptual pop masterpiece: a start of the millennium cry for help."
