The sound of one man noodling around in a very fluid way on a guitar? It doesn’t, on the surface, sound terribly appealing. And yet it is, and it works.... Like all the best ambient music, you can stick The Union / A Hem of Evening on in the background and leave it to run on pleasantly as you ignore it, but it works best when you crank it up and let if fully come to life. There are beautifully meandering guitar labyrinths to get lost in here, and becoming thoroughly lost is a pleasure... The Union / A Hem of Evening is one of the real treasures of 2012.»

If you’ve got a gap in your record collection for a record with the bite and bile of Godflesh and the swing and swagger of dubstep then Posthuman is just the thing to fill it.»

Do you need this re-issue? Well, if you already own On Avery Island then no: there’s nothing here that you haven’t heard before. However, if you’re a fan of Aeroplane but you’ve never checked out the first Neutral Milk Hotel record, or if you’re a completist who fancies a new piece of shiny coloured vinyl, then this is the perfect summer purchase for you.»

Take Care, Take Care, Take Care is the auditory equivalent of a strawberry ice-cream on a sunny day and, however many times you might have tasted one before, it still counts as a treat. »

Constant Future is the sound of a band who, after nearly ten years together, are comfortable with their sound, who know exactly what they’re good at and sound like they’re having great fun doing it. »

Whether or not Say Us is the record for you will depend both on your tolerance for classic rock and on how highly you prize originality.»
