5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent third album from genius jazzers, 21 Jul 2008
By Sick Mouthy (Exeter, Devon) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)      
Apparently recorded in late 2006 but not released until now, Mercury-nominated Polar Bear's third album is also their longest, and sees them making increasing use of electronics to add texture to their music. Songs like Goodbye dissolve from the kind of tuneful, genre-hopping upbeat cool jazz we recognise as Polar Bear's signature sound into a cloud of low-key electronic droning before transforming seamlessly into the following track, while Voices is out-and-out ambient jazz, and good with it. All the while Polar Bear weave through bop, fusion, free and any other kind of jazz they fancy with scant regard for conservative classicism, proving themselves yet again to be about the best band in the world in any musical field. Awesome.

3.0 out of 5 stars Album review, 17 Feb 2009
This latest album review is another interesting listen from the great guys from Polar Bear. Personally preferred the previous album "Held on the Tips of Fingers" but there are still enough enjoyable moments to this record. For the full experience though you really should try and get to see them live. I saw them at a small venue in Leicester and even entered a little oriental food based banter with Seb Rochford the drummer. Man it's a good thing he knows his beats better than he knows his dim sum!

4.0 out of 5 stars Great new jazz, 6 Aug 2009
Had this album for a while now and glad didn't review earlier because it gets better with time .It's a long album but is best listend to all at once.Not sure where some of the songs end and some begin ,they bleed into each other which give the album a dream quality.
The bass is louder in the mix than on previous efforts giving it more of a dub feel.
Won't give it a label but if you like Alice Coltrane later Boredoms stuff or any good head music buy this!
