"The brooding guitar line at the heart of 'Freedom at 21', and the typically Jack solo that follows it, the juxtaposition of acoustic guitars and violent wordplay of 'Love Interruption', and the piano-led shuffle of 'Hip (Eponymous) Poor Boy' all rank among White's best moments." - thisisfakediy.com

"It's a comfortable shoe of a record, a distillation of everything he's done during the past decade." - spin.com

"On the whole, the album performs the tricky task of updating White's musical aesthetic without euthanising its primal nature." - avclub.com
