Reviews"...the Bluetones often succeed on intent rather than content....breezy crooner Mark Morriss has a charming, unaffected style....the 'Tones are a smiling Merseybeat rush...", Ranked #11 in NME's 1996 critic's poll., "...Conjuring a hybrid of once-influential forebearers--the textured thoughtfulness of Aztec Camera with the hip-swaying buoyancy of the Stone Roses--accusation and introspection entwine in their sprightly, energized odes." - Rating: B+, Ranked #19 on Melody Maker's list of 1996's `Albums Of The Year.', 3 stars out of 5 -- "Their melodic indie pop could hang together well, as chiming, winsome Number 2 hit 'Slight Return' and folky elongation 'The Fountainhead' prove...", 3 stars out of 5 -- "The album remains a very, very good snapshot of its era....There's life in the performance that's well worth revisiting.", 3 Stars - Good - "...an accomplished and varied collection of guitar-based tunes with a solid charm rooted in the best traditions of English alternative pop--no more, but certainly no less..."
