  1. 9.0 |   The Quietus

    So prolific are The Broken Family Band that, as surely as night follows day, the faithful can no doubt expect another brilliant album at the same time next year. Here's hoping that Please And Thank You will find them new admirers during the intervening hibernation.

  2. 8.0 |   PopMatters

    Clinching the Broken Family Band’s gradual transmogrification from oddball indie-country act to snide, laid-back garage-rockers, Please and Thank You is a refreshing draught of sharp guitar-based pop

  3. 6.0 |   Independent on Sunday

    All garage rock riffs wrapped around lyrics full of warmth, humour and time spent in the Real World.

  5. 5.0 |   musicOMH

    Previous form has shown The Broken Family Band are capable of much better than this. Adams seems like a bright and funny man. And the fact that this band isn't a full-time proposition needn't place a limit on their creative ambition.

  6. 4.0 |   NME

    Essentially a dickless Radiohead, circa-‘The Bends’.
