Editorial Reviews Included in Wire's 50 Records Of The Year [2003] - [A] substantial and deeply personal work... The Wire (01/01/2004)
4 stars out of 5 - ...A quilted, intricate and absorbing collection of songs that moves SHLEEP's fluttering textures into darker territory... Uncut (11/01/2003)
Ranked #5 in Uncut's Albums Of The Year 2003 Uncut (01/01/2004)
4 stars out of 5 - ...An album which ranks alongside his strongest work....Wyatt has assembled a cast of exceptional musicians here and directs them with a mercurial touch... Mojo (10/01/2003)
Ranked #8 in Mojo's The Best of 2003 Mojo (01/01/2004)
4 stars out of 5 - ...It's Wyatt himself who dominates this warm-hearted, ambitious album....His frail, droning voice carries these tales of love and fear to an emotional wellspring rarely tapped in the realm of popular song... Q (11/01/2003)
5 stars out of 5 -- It remains, in many ways, one of Wyatt's most ambitious records with some of his most striking songs. Record Collector
