Reviews:
FOLK ROOTS
Their most important album so far, firmly establishing them as a powerful contemporary force in Scottish music, without laying waste to their traditional roots.

DAILY TELEGRAPH
... the sounds produced by these inventive folk rockers from Scotland is as close to perfection as any album I have heard this year ... they have concocted a winning brew.

Q16
The music is consistently melodic, rarely cliched and often, as on the title track, hauntingly beautiful. The album sees the whole band growing in stature - Brian McNeill as an instrumental jock-of-all-trades, Alan Reid as a seductive vocalist, while the band as a whole sounds comfortable and adventurous.
