A great 'pop' album

"Cope's albums from Peggy Suicide through to this one represent a sustained output of near genius. Interpreter is let down just a little bit by its at times silly lyrics, but is full of great tunes with not a dud track. Like all of Cope's albums of the 90s it is best listened to in a single sitting as the tempo builds and the songs run together in a way that highlights their strengths more so than as a collection of individual tracks. Cope's new EP is now released and a new album is not far away. He is a relatively undiscovered & unknown treasure."

"Every song is great. Every lyric is great. The mix is great. The musicianship is great. There is even great packaging."

"Julian Cope does it again. This is a superb album. I Come From Another Planet Baby was a great rock single, with an hypnotic rhythm and great lyrics. Then comes a rehashed favourite I've Got My TV & My Pills...brilliant stuff. My favourite track is The Battle For The Trees, a politically motivated song, maybe, but this is Cope at his best. The album loses its way a bit in the second half, but finishes strongly with Dust. A great album from a great artist."
