Entertainment Reviews:
Spin - 7/01, pp.131,134
6 out of 10 - "...If you've ever wondered what might happen if Jean Michel Jarre polluted the folk tradition of a Blue Ridge town, or you want to hear references to British pantomime, Bruce Haack, and Karen Finley within 10 minutes, or you're Japanese - this is probably your album of the year..."Q - 5/01, p.115
3 stars out of 5 - "...Hillbilly technopop rich in perplexity and deadpan mirth..."Alternative Press - 6/01, p.87
3 out of 5 - "...Absurd stuff that's enjoyable for its very absurdity..."Magnet - 6-7/01, pp.99,101
"...Ethnographic forgeries...transmuted into quirky/new wavey electropop that keeps the lens focused on his oh-so-clever wordplay..."CMJ - 4/9/01, p.11
