    ...finds them vaulting to an even higher plane, thanks to their blending of soulful vocals (especially those of Eska Mtungwazi) with a more exploratory musical outlook, notably reflecting the influence of krautrock.

  7. 6.0 |   Rave Magazine

  8. 5.0 |   PopMatters

    Yeah Ghost comes off like a band desperate to reinvent themselves and struggling to piece in all the sounds they still love to make. Fans coming to this expecting a Zero 7 album will likely find it thoroughly disorienting and/or frustrating
