Editorial Reviews 4 stars out of 5 - ...A fully formed debut, with tangential echoes of mid-period Beach Boys and Byrds, and, oddly, more than a whiff of The Beta Band....an hermetically sealed, beautifully bucolic world... Q (10/01/2000)
...Their melodic, dreamy music is smart and contemporary yet also innocent and removed... Mojo (10/01/2000)
...A quiet little record that sneaks up on you with how good it is. Built around a trio of singers, mellow chord progressions and understated drumming....Simple beauty....it's like a snapshot of an angel. Magnet (04/01/2000)
4 stars out of 5 - ...A softly spoken, understated classic... Melody Maker (09/12/2000)
8 out of 10 - ...Darkened with 21st century melancholy....this take on soft-spoken, heartbreak music excels on all levels... NME (10/07/2000)
Ranked #30 in NME's Top 50 Albums Of The Year. NME (12/30/2000)
The Kingsbury Manx carves its own niche on this debut....Seduction through simplicity is the secret. Magnet
4 stars out of 5 - ...Full of charming harmonies, chiming guitars and limpid pools of sound so warm you want to take off your clothes and swim in them... Uncut (10/01/2000)
