"I have to agree it is the most polished Tear Garden albumn to date, a much richer sound and more introspective and meloncholy than the Cure ever reached with Disintigration. The myriad of layers and lyrics induce a dream like quality, with just enough harshness to keep one awake. I eagerly wait for thier next contribution to music."
Teargarden's best work

"far and away the most polished tear garden release to date, "to be an angel blind" also shows the group fully developing it's own sound independant of both skinny puppy (whose sound predominated TG's first release "tired eyes slowly burning") and the legendary pink dots (which coloured "the last man to fly"). this album uses a firm bluesy-base of acoustic drums, bass, and guitar, with cevin key's always brilliant analogue-based synth stylings tastefully mixed in to give it a perfect shimmering psychedelic edge. i'd have to say this is my favourite ka-spel or cevin key related project of all time."
"Certainly a fine album in it's own right, quite possibly the best of the Tear Garden catalogue. A little more tamed and focused, some of the most beautiful stuff cEvin and Ed have ever made together."
Can't go wrong!

"I have never met a person who has not liked, if not loved, this album. Even people who can't stand Legendary Pink Dots (Ed Ka-Spel's - the singer - other band), love this album. This album is a definite must have for everyone, from yanni fans to skinny puppy fans."
