Entertainment Reviews:
Spin - 4/02, p.117
7 out of 10 - "...Bragg has whipped up another one of his trademark dilemmas: a worldbeat record about the terrors of globalization....ENGLAND's exoticism is offset by plenty of tough and tender ballads, and even the most stridently worldbeat numbers are joyous, well-made, and never patronizing..."Entertainment Weekly - 3/8/02, p.74
"...As always, he keeps one eye on class consciousness as he works the roots-pop angle..." - Rating: B-Q - 3/02, p.116
3 stars out of 5 - "...It's more of an anti-Britpop album, a rail against a warm-beer-and-cricket version of Englishness....the music incorporates everything from ska to Afrobeat to Algerian folk song..."Alternative Press - 4/02, p.68
9 out of 10 - "...ENGLAND feels like a jam session-bluesy keyboard lines and guitar riffs busk with soul-inflected harmonies, would-music percussion and complex, exotic rhythms..."Mojo (Publisher) - 3/02, p.114
