Rolling Stone - p.108
Included in Rolling Stone's "50 Top Albums of the Year 2007" -- "All over SOS, rhythms turn into hooks and hooks turn into beats, until there is no difference between the two."

Q - p.110
4 stars out of 5 -- "[T]he rhythms here sound tighter and more intensely focused, Murphy's presence as a songwriter and frontman is a revelation."
Alternative Press - p.194
3 stars out of 5 -- "'Get Innocuous' opens the proceedings with an electro-groove that's mechanical and soulful..."
The Wire - p.51

The Wire - p.37
