DPRP (8.5/10)

Reception for the album was quite positive, with many reviewers concluding that, while the album didn't quite flow together as well as most Porcupine Tree albums do (due to it be a collection of b-sides), the songs themselves were still quite good. Aspects of the album that were praised included the experimental nature of the songs and the inclusion of the complete, full length version of "Even Less".

Famous quotes containing the word reception:

    Aesthetic emotion puts man in a state favorable to the reception of erotic emotion.... Art is the accomplice of love. Take love away and there is no longer art.
    Rémy De Gourmont (1858–1915)

    Satire is a sort of glass, wherein beholders do generally discover everybody’s face but their own; which is the chief reason for that kind of reception it meets in the world, and that so very few are offended with it.
    Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)

    I gave a speech in Omaha. After the speech I went to a reception elsewhere in town. A sweet old lady came up to me, put her gloved hand in mine, and said, “I hear you spoke here tonight.” “Oh, it was nothing,” I replied modestly. “Yes,” the little old lady nodded, “that’s what I heard.”
    Gerald R. Ford (b. 1913)
