Reviews"...There's nothing here that we haven't heard before...but it's been a long time since it's been done this well. Taking their cue from mid-60s bossa nova, KOC reach back for this mix of innocence and romance, making it come alive - and, even better, believable...", 3 Out of 5-"...Though Limp-Wristed Stuff, It's Undeniably Beautiful...", 4 stars out of 5 - "...Spry and limpid....there's lashings of charm in the way the songs unfurl, touching upon an array of ethereal womenfolk and ending prettily...", Ranked #33 in Nme's 50 "Albums of the Year 2001"., 8 out of 10 - "...Forges triumph from stolidly primitivist values by pulling the same soft-focus folk tricks that anguished men on stolls have done for the past 40 years, only 'better'....With a tangible love of influences that's genuinely moving..."
EngineerKen Nelson, Morten Arnetvedt
