“Despite packing 16 or so clever songs into just 70 minutes – each of them riffing on a different genre or adapting a theme from a familiar long-runner – it still feels scanty and random...Bermange’s lyrics are mostly deft and witty and his playing is on the money: it takes real skill deliberately to hit that many duff notes...But it all feels a bit incestuous, lazy and obvious.”
