    It charts its course with verve and accessibility, offering a masterclass in powerfully economic guitar rock. [Jul 2014, p.97]

    It’s been an odd and unpredictable mix at times, but Mould’s always made a point of indulging his interest with passion and integrity.

    Beauty & Ruin--a lean, 12 songs in 37 minutes--finds Mould still monkeying with the formula. [Jul 2014, p.90]
