Are there any other reviews that anyone has seen?

I check Google each day for new reviews but nothing for the moment! ;D
It seems that there are others reviews somewhere because, according to the Shop...:

 New Model Army celebrate 30 years of releasing music this year with what the critics are calling their best ever album ”Between Dog and Wolf.”

The album sounds distinctly different to any previous NMA album, with comparisons to Nick Cave, PJ Harvey, Peter Gabriel and Pink Floyd.


I remember the Mojo review with its comparisons with Nick Cave and PJ Harvey but...Peter Gabriel and Pink Floyd?...in others reviews not read yet probably!

I think someone needs to send him some of the other albums that weren't No Rest, TGOC and T&C... something of a late in the day career enhancement perhaps, but Carnival or Eight and certainly NBTS may come as a bit of a surprise.

That said, good review when you think about it. Seems the band have done something very different. It will do all of us good to have our NMA preconceptions challenged. And as long as they are playing the amount of old stuff they currently are live, who are we to complain?!
I'm crying out to the gods who couldn't care less - come and get me if ya can!

indeed!
I guess that in 1989, many were "shocked" when NMA delivered "Thunder and consolation" after raw, "punk" albums like "Vengeance" or "No rest for the wicked". ;)
It is always good when Artists with a big A don't rest on their laurels. :)

Hey Jibbs - Thanks for posting.  Not only did I enjoy the NMA review, but I also found out that Laura Veirs has a new album coming out.  Happy Days all around.
