Review

Spin (p.82) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "[With] fuzzily distant guitars, Ade Blackburn's half-decipherable rasp...fleshy dub undertones, and a sense of urgency and mystery..."
Entertainment Weekly (p.123) - "With its lushly forbidding soundscapes and enigmatic lyricism, VISITATIONS bears repeated journeys." -- Grade: A
Magnet (p.94) - "[The songs] offer variations on familiar themes, but add some new colors. 'Tusk' is a punk rave-up..."
CMJ (p.3) - "Packed with fuzzed-out guitars, driving rhythms and plangent autoharp, Clinic's latest offering is laced with Ade Blackburn's ghostly vocals."
CMJ (p.39) - "[I]ts approach is vicious and well-planned, stuffing effective creepers like 'Animal/Human' and 'Paradise' as atmospheric pranks amidst disco-flavored, teeth-baring anthems like 'The New Seeker'..."
Mojo (Publisher) (p.108) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "[E]xtra-voluminous bass drums are near-rhythmically pounded...while Ade Blackburn mewls in his unnerving, breathless way..."

Title Note

Four albums in--an eternity in British rock--Clinic must be considered among the greatest bands in the U.K. VISITATIONS continues their string of classics which began with 2000's INTERNAL WRANGLER. Unlike most indie bands, whose production values tend to get more whitewashed as the budgets grow, Clinic retains the specialness of their debut's sound--a menacing organ pulse and murky production--while molding the eeriness into hummable Brit-pop.

The results are astonishing: "If You Could Read Your Mind" sounds like a late '80s Manchester groove dragged through the sewer; singer Ade Blackburn's exasperated moans offer no definitive answer to the philosophical questions posed in "Animal/Human;" "Gideon" chugs with a freakish guitar and Suicide-esque organ grind that has become Clinic's stock in trade. Like most of their contemporaries, the band cannot resist an acoustic jones as "Jigsaw Man" and "Visitations" drone into freak-folk territory. While the latter may not be their most comfortable arena, VISITATIONS still throbs with the energy and originality of a band at the top of their game--and one with few equals.
