Too Many Days Without Thinking

Q Magazine (5/97, p.128) - 3 Stars (out of 5) - "... Not the thing of cool, dishevelled mystery that was this album's humbler predecessor, 41, this is a sharper, edgier and more resolutely groovy collection altogether."
New Musical Express (3/15/97, p.46) - "...despite all the experimental fussing and the presence of known drone-merchant Ralske at the controls, Swell have made their most conventional sounding album to date....It's still gloriously skewed, however, with...singular lyrics...and subtle intensity..."
Option (5-6/97, p.133-134) - "... mordant humor, understated vocals and clean, strummy acoustic guitars nestling against dirtier electrics....Swell does it like nobody else."
