JOHN AIZLEWOOD, Q MAGAZINE (****)Richly layered both musically and lyrically, songs spin between vitriolic anger, witty self-deprecation and arch political condemnation. Like Kerouac and Wylie, T-T understands what is subversive about love. We should cherish such poets of 21st century urbanity. ALISTAIR FITCHETT, PLAN B MAGAZINE"Extraordinary. A terrifying and thrilling experience.. . as a theme, violence is less an undercurrent and more a seething torrent. Capital's London pulsates with unease." JAMES WALSH, MORNING STAR"Another winner. One of the finest and most consistent songwriters this country has seen this century." THISISMUSIC.

kirkt Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 The album is really good. A very diverse collection of songs with real rockers on it as well some soul and a jazzy instrumental but still very much sounding like Chris T-T. I recommend it!
