Apr 20, 2021In recent years, Stott has alternately spurned and embraced the nasty side of his sound, but on Never The Right Time, he nails a difficult balance between bass weight and pop vulnerability.
-
Apr 20, 2021Though Never the Right Time may be more introspective and relaxed than previous releases, Stott's unique take on nostalgia and the exploration therein is intriguing enough to make up for some minor pacing issues. Andy Stott can still do no wrong, even if his sonic landscape sounds so distinctively so.
-
Apr 23, 2021Stott’s latest may be the most inviting record in his catalogue, perhaps even an entry point into his funereal sound-world. It’s also one of his best.
-
Apr 20, 2021Never the Right Time is excitingly different, if inconsistent. The well-known pillars of Stott's sound still underpin much of what happens across the album's nine tracks, yet the way those pillars are occasionally arranged have made way for new kinds of space.
-
Apr 22, 2021His newest resembles an above-average B-sides compilation: something to tie over the diehards while they wait for his next official album.
-
Apr 20, 2021What once was exciting is now a bit boring, and it’s hard to say exactly why. Stott is still a wonderful sound technician of unerring good taste, but something seems to go slack at the center of Never the Right Time.
-
Apr 23, 2021The results just feel like a watering down of his vision, leaving the listener in a strange hinterland which doesn’t leave much of an impression either way.
