Editorial Reviews 3 stars out of 5 - ...Eight airy, gentle pop songs touched with strings, keyboards and Dury's high, sweet vocals, in the mode of Belle and Sebastian or the Beatles...Mojo (1/03, p.76) - Ranked #38 in Mojo's Best Albums of 2002 - ...A dreamy, understated morphine drift...Uncut (9/02, p.106) - 4 stars out of 5 - ...wonderful, whimsical debut album...off-kilter, contemporary psychedelia.Magnet (4/03, p.87) - ...An undulating, mellotron-y music akin to DARK SIDE OF THE MOON or 'Space Oddity' dreamily whispered, strummed and hummed under your breath....What's so disturbing is the tremor of his fluid songs - tunes so subtly marched by, they're absolutely creepy...CMJ (2/3/03, p.7) - ...Rousing....Dury has fashioned a collection of warm songs with a captivating edge of eerie peculiarity... Rolling Stone (04/17/2003)
