Review
Q Magazine (5/00, p.118) - 3 stars out of 5 - "A hit and mix affair, when THE CLOSER YOU GET is good, it's very good indeed....best appreciated with a drink and a smoke."
Mojo (4/00, p.93) - "...Proves irrefutably that they have not only the chops, but the 3 veg and gravy, too....Few bands now have the courage to make noise as meaningful as this; it's like warming your heart against a limited nuclear strike."
NME (3/18/00, p.35) - 9 out of 10 - "...an emo-logical cataclysm of Exxon Valdez proportions....the filth and the fury take centre stage....CLOSER… Read More is a fist-in-the-air triumph, a beautifully realised shot of vitrol to the mainstream's limpid veins, an amped-up refusal to acquiesce..."
Melody Maker (3/28/00, pp.48-9) - 4.5 stars out of 5 - "...Hairy-toothed, bulging-eyed, blood-under-fingernails sibling turned savage from being locked in the attic too long....Best album of the year so far by a joy-driven mile..."
Magnet (6-7/00, pp.89-90) - "...Radiates white-knuckled guitar rock with majestic, Radiohead-like craftsmanship....burning with a smoldering intensity....This is a group serious about its rock'n'roll....a stunning document of a band coming into its own..."
Entertainment Weekly (4/21/00, p.79) - "...These UK lads come on like a mad health teacher....But just when you think they're all about cathartic, if juvenile, guitar rock, they unleash the lovely 'Ten Places To Die'. Here's to schizophonia." - Rating: B+
CMJ (4/17/00, p.3) - "...A virtual warzone of guitar shrapnel, and it explodes with titanic intensity.
