Reviews
9 out of 10 - "...tension between private moments and public spaces reaches a conceptual peak on TEMPERMENTAL....EBTG's darkest album, lit only by the promise of the dance floor, the all-night cafe, and strangers' smiles...", "Gorgeous sound washes by producer-arranger Ben Watt; self-assured yet vulnerable vocals from Tracey Thorn....pop fans will appreciate the way Watt loosens house's relentless thud..." - Rating: B+, "...carries over many of the same elements as its predecessor - the repetitive beats and wistful melodies are all in order....Fittingly, it's another collaboration, this time with Iranian-America remix squad Deep Dish, on 'The Future of Future" that saves the album...", 3 out of 5 - "...exudes a deep understanding of how dance music ebbs and flows....engaging house and drum & bass beats and memorable choruses...Tracey Thorn's distinctive vocals truly make these songs more than just club-ready fare...", 3 stars out of 5 - "...deep house and breakbeat polished almost to the point of blandness....Assured but not adventurous....proves that EBTG are no dilettantes...", 3.5 stars out of 5 - "...digs even deeper into clubland...weaving their elegantly morose songcraft around house and jungle beats....if Cole Porter had composed a disco song cycle for Dusty Springfield, it might have sounded like this."
