  1. 10.0 |   The Skinny

    An indelible work, surely bound to remain etched on the memory way into the future
    Read Review

  2. 9.0 |   The Quietus

    A profoundly sophisticated, utterly delightful intoxication through which – yes – it's entirely possible to forget the present and bathe in the ecstatic now

  3. 8.5 |   The 405

    Often eschewing the heavy guitars that seem to characterise much of the genre, Forgetting The Present is at once a delicate, beautiful yet devastating work

  4. 8.5 |   The Line Of Best Fit

    The band’s subtle tinkering lays them open to accusations of repetitiveness, but behind the sumptuous material there’s a fierce sense of intent, some far-off perfection to shoot for

  5. 8.0 |   NME

    The obvious comparison perhaps lies with label bosses Mogwai, but Remember Remember are more about awe than aggression

  10. 6.0 |   The List

    If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, Remember Remember must be keen to impress label bosses Mogwai

  11. 6.0 |   The Observer

    Overall a lighter touch would not be a bad thing

  12. 4.0 |   DIY

    Whilst the majority of the album is technically admirable for what it does achieve, it is also frustratingly slow going at times
