“Broken Social Scene’s Kevin Drew has been covertly in thrall to Brian Eno’s ambient canon and the Warp catalogue. On his third solo album, it’s a love that has finally spoken its name. Recorded during an extended stay in England, it’s a cavalcade of electronic invention. Twists and turns abound, be it Exploding Lip Balm, the pulsating, Warp-esque earworm which flowers into a gorgeous, stentorian piano coda owing as much to Yanni as Eno, or The Slinfold Loop borrowing both the opening to Simple Minds’ Waterfront and instrumental sections from Kraftwerk’s full length Autobahn before somersaulting into a mini symphony. In all, an indulgence that doesn’t sound indulgent.” - John Aizlewood, Mojo
