A work of considerable power and subtlety. Certainly a grower but I was hooked on first listen and it seems to improve on subsequent plays. Well done to everyone involved and good luck for the future, hopefully a long and successful future.

These tracks were recorded around the same time as their self-titled debut, and while that was excellent, I reckon this to be twice as good. Funky, chunky, melodic and lyrically superlative, Mark E. Smith would be very pleased and proud to be honoured so regally, not that he'd ever admit it.

A fantastic album. I can see why they didn't continue under the name The Evens, as it's a different sound with the bass added. Coriky is the Evens + Joe Lally from Fugazi on bass. If you can imagine The Evens with a slightly more funky, aggressive sound like Fugazi... that's what you get! And there's no way that can ever go wrong. What a great debut album!!
