REVIEWS :

"It all sounds like a pleasant, intelligent work of post-punk, using all the energy and inventive composition, taking elements of seventies progressive rock with all the changes, but then as executed by punks who know how to play their instruments.
It is almost an orchestral approach here and it works damn fine." (Frans de Ward - VITAL WEEKLY 1178)

"Insomma se vi piacciono gli Ex più improvvisanti buttatevi a capofitto in questo disco.Un gran bel disco che ci rende orgogliosi sia stato fatto da un'etichetta di casa nostra:per quanto ho ascoltato, il migliore su cui abbia messo la sua voce Sok da quando sen'è andato da casa (8).(Stefano I. Bianchi-BLOW UP #252)

"Il peut être alors question une nouvelle fois de The Ex comme sur Flim Flam, des accents de nos Hollandais préférés sous le soleil de la Californie avec ce sens du groove si particulier et qui ne pourrait plus cesser de jouer. C’est dirigé de main de maître par Staiano, avec précision, souplesse et vivacité, sans surabondance et en faire des tonnes, ce qui aurait pu être la menace d’un tel projet, juste ce qui est nécessaire à notre bonheur et classer ce disque dans le rayon original et réussite.(PERTE & FRACAS)

"Ze leveren hier in een kleine 3 kwartier 4 stukken af, die avontuurlijk, pakkend en steengoed zijn. Ik moet in eerste instantie denken aan de betere experimentele noise van de vroegere The Ex, maar daarnaast door de jazzy, avant-garde en post-punk stukken ook aan Palinckx, The Residents, Dog Faced Hermans en Už Jsme Doma. Mooier dan dit kan ik het ook niet maken, maar het is allemaal dan ook van een uitzonderlijk niveau." (Jan Willem Broek - De subjectivisten)

"Quanti di voi possono ricordare gruppi fantastici come Diagram Brothers o Dog Faced Hermans? Ebbene, i quattro fantastici pezzi di questo disco ci riportano agli anthem dei Fall, alla fusion roboante e reiterata di James Chance, ai DNA di Arto Lindsay, al primitivismo visionario del Pop Group, ai rumorismi post-industriali e allucinati di This Heat. Contorsioni, distorsioni e tantissimo ritmo."(8)
(Romina Baldoni-Ondaraock)
