Entertainment Reviews:

Spin - 4/99, pp.162-164
8 (out of 10) - "...XTC sound fresh and unwired....They know that backtracking usually sounds dubious."
Entertainment Weekly - 3/5/99, pp.66-67
"...The gorgeous yet vaguely unsettling arrangements are well suited to the exquisitely flawed humanism of Andy Partridge's and Colin Moulding's composititions, lending an appropriately uneasy edge to [these] bittersweet tunes..." - Rating: A-
Q - 4/99, p.107
4 Stars (out of 5) - "...full of queer and enjoyable songs....splendid; the band continuing their Beatles-esque mission to imbue pop with intelligence..."
CMJ - 2/15/99, p.5
"...an album of refined ambition, employing detailed and decorous arrangements....Partridge's toothy wit has not been filed down..."
Mojo (Publisher) - 1/00, p.31
Ranked #7 in Mojo Magazine's "Best of 1999."
Mojo (Publisher) - 3/99, p.86
"...how effortlessly pleasurable the work is as a whole....the two of them seems to be united here as never before..."
Paste (magazine) - "The arrangements were lush and warm, like sinking into a sun-soaked lawn, and Andy Partridge and Colin Moulding's lyrics were dripping with detail and sly wit."
