"...his songs are articulate and have a surprising sense of pop melody." - Tim Scott, Noisey
"Centre Negative. An ever changing cast of riff fiends led by Sir Michael Mcclelland. Ideas come in and out of the set/song/moment long enough for one to declare "GENIUS!" . All the time acknowledging that melody is Queen of the colonial subject. A little too well re-searched and hungry for ideas for a conventional pop song, Centre Negative gives you hundreds of chances to enjoy yourself. It's time to kill existential arrogance. These are well crafted modern pop songs, chockablock with ideas and the pleasantries of punk noise." - Al Montfort, UV Race, Total Control
"As far as I'm concerned, it's another hit for ever/never..." - MF ,Casting Couch
"..packed with post-ironic self-hatred and snarkily choreographed misery, and it suits their tunes nicely." - Yellow Green Red
"But is the album good?" - MRR
