What the critics say...
Rolling Stone (4/17/03, p.106) - 3 stars out of 5 - "...PHOENIX is a loose concept album about overindulging in chemicals, love and guitars, and it mainlines feedback....What a trip..."
Uncut (8/03, p.108) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...Hazy guitars sprawl over 10 tracks....'Baby Blue' is the surprise highlight, a gorgeous, twinkling pop song reminiscent of Air's 'Sexy Boy'..."
Magnet (1/03, p.108) - "...Fittingly, the Warlocks' unrelenting instrumental passages and ensemble chops roar with a guttural '60s garage-psych mentality that never seems remotely faked or kitschy..."
The Wire (6/03, p.74) - "...It's on tracks like the ethereal, 15 minute 'Oh Shadie' where the group's acid washed sound really takes off..."
