Nice to read a Review I can actually understand  Far too many reviewers seem to swallow a Thesaurus before writing and end up spending more time mincing with fancy words than actually reviewing the subject matter.
8 out of 10 

Yeah second that, a proper run through the album from someone who listened to it without then worrying about over intellectualising it

The review in the new issue of Obsküre Magazine is very positive.
The reviewer says that it is  overall a "coherent, totally controlled/masterful album, great NMA", a few songs are a bit less memorable than others because of the album's long length ( over 1h of recording) but there are also many fine songs ("Seven times", "Between dog and wolf", "I need more time", "Quasr el nil bridge", "Ghosts" and "Knievel", the latter one according to the reviewer could have been included among the best songs of "Thunder and consolation" and "Impurity")

Overall rating: 80% ( there's also a 4 pages interview of Justin in this issue.  )

agree with that. And i knew this album would be very different from the last one. it is. And it's not my fav of NMA. But maybe, it's because i'm more into Metal/Rock music at the moment.

So the cds have been sent overseas?

In absence of any singular “anthem”, this album is unlikely to win new fans, but to the discerning listener, this is arguably one of the finest, creative collections New Model Army has assembled in years.

Positive yet a bit mixed, fair review:

http://www.tonedeaf.com.au/reviews/new-music/352266/between-dog-and-wolf.htm

Bradford visionaries New Model Army were routinely questioned after the 2009 release of Today Is A Good Day. Lacking the creativity and inspiration of previous efforts such as The Ghost Of Cain and Thunder And Consolation, the album was a concerning demonstration of an exhausted band running on empty.

Fast forward a mere three and a half years, and the five-piece have returned with the strange yet sporadically fabulous Between Dog And Wolf.

With a resurgence guaranteed by the refreshing influence of new bassist Ceri Monger, the band revisits the deep and soulful atmospheres of yesteryear, and is an exuberant reminder of the relentless passion that defines the post-punk rockers.

Opening with the dubious and somewhat forgettable “Horsemen”, the album is soon redeemed by the exceptional hooks and urgent strings of lead single “March In September”.

With a mix of intricate guitars and pounding drum beats, the album portrays a sense of renewed purpose, and flows periodically between turbulent rhythms and lacklustre melodies.

Offset by the desperate vocals of main composer Justin Sullivan, “Did You Make It Safe?” and “Pull The Sun” are tragic odes that examine the many grievances of society, while “Knievel” and “Stormclouds” are further elegies that showcase the distinctive sonic energies of the band.

Less concise and frustratingly intermittent in comparison to previous efforts, the album spans an almost excessive 14 tracks, and fades cruelly as a result. Nonetheless, Between Dog And Wolf is an enjoyable return that captures the characteristic sounds and ongoing abilities of New Model Army.

Really? I thought TIAGD was a cracking album that was well received. I hate it when people state their own opinions as general fact.
