Album Reviews:

Rolling Stone (p.74) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "The songs are intricately arranged but sonically stark, foregrounding Apple's piano and the stupendous drumming of Charley Drayton."

Entertainment Weekly (pp.59-60) - "Like Apple herself, it's highly confessional and creative and temperamental, and will probably make you fall crazy in love." -- Grade: A

Mojo (Publisher) (p.82) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "Packing robust, bare-boned, often off-piste piano, double bass and percussion loop arrangements, it's a hyper-vivid and intensely musical affair..."
