ReviewsIncluded in Q Magazine's "50 Best Albums of 1997.", "Alternately chaotic and meticulous, thundering and quivering, LADIES ANG GENTLEMEN finds power in conflict -- between restraint and excess, addiction and isolation, and ultimately, love and hate.", Included in Q's Best Psychedelic Albums of All Time, 3.5 Stars (out of 5) - "...their most rocking album to date....monumental in scope, boasting 58 contributors, who range from Dr. John to the avant-classical Balanescu Quartet....Both ethereal and earthy...", "...The zero-gravity guitar drone can get monotonous, but Memphis-soul horns, blues harmonica, and gospel singing keep the songs from drifting away altogether." - Rating: B+, Included in Q Magazine's "90 Best Albums of the 1990s.", Ranked #12 in Mojo's "100 Modern Classics" -- "Dramatic, drenched in string arrangements to rival those of Jack Nitzsche's.", "...you'll feel like your soul has been stretched somehow....one mind-blowing perspective-fusing supernova of an album....that redefines notions of bittersweet and love-hate to the point where everyday emotions seem very small indeed. ", 5 stars out of 5 -- "'Come Together' -- featuring The London Community Gospel Choir -- and 'Electricity' are amp-crackling surges of power...", Ranked #3 in The NME "Top 30 Heartbreak Albums" - "A warped concept album...offering a portal into the fragile mental state of Jason Pierce.
