JoyFeb 13, 2008Psychedelic combines a beautiful Khmer-language vocalist,it's new avant-pop music a bit like "Beirut".It's a new form of music post-modernism we should concentrate on.

BrianP.Jan 27, 2008Kind of disappointing... their last album was fantastic, but this falls short. There's a lot more English on this one, which I think was the wrong way to go. The indecipherable Khmer lyrics are half their charm.

SDKFeb 1, 2008Their latest and most solid release to date - venus on earth carries with it no baggage but yet trims all the edges of the past and creates a newness for all to hear, feel and breathe. there's a trust with the musicians - a bond as the album moves. it keeps you coming back for more.

The band itself is top notch here.

UncutAlways led by the miraculous voice of Ch'hom Nimol. So beautifully and effectively, in fact, that they end up giving fusion a good name. [Feb 2008, p.78]

Venus on Earth, their third album, contains more English lyrics than their previous two efforts, but it also represents some of the band's most sentimental work.
