"The music is a weirdly entrancing cross-blend of influences: an eerie blend of classical/religious and real pop feel." Paul Du Noyer, NME "Four songs on offer: 'We Will Meet Them Again' is first, offputtingly subtitled 'Words taken from an English translation of Mahler's songs on the death of children' but still the best thing here. 'Arctic Death' puts her high, pure voice to rather obvious use, 'Angels Crying' is self-consciously affecting and 'Sanctus' is affected." Record Mirror "Miss Astley's voice is quite moving and not half as artless as it may sound; the arrangements mostly for voices, synthesisers and percussion, are effectively stark and cleverly balanced." Richard Williams, The Times |
