3.5 stars out of 5 -- "What emerges is one of her most challenging albums, and one of her most urgent..."

Clash (Magazine) - "[T]his is a musically rich collection that is partly a logical step on from the rattle of 2011's beautiful LET ENGLAND SHAKE and also as melodic a rock record as Harvey has released in some time."
