  1. 8.0 |   The Skinny

    With a complementary range and at times uncanny similarity between them, the three voices often intertwine and harmonise in ecstatic union

  2. 8.0 |   The Quietus

    Nevermen is a mad fantasia, like a parable pulled from a dream or A Pilgrim's Progress updated and made crazy for the Justin Bieber generation

  3. 7.0 |   Gig Soup

    Only once you appreciate this and you've experienced the album a few times, can you finally applaud the quality of the LP

  4. 7.0 |   Drowned In Sound

    The trio trade lines like they’re flashing secret handshakes to each other – it’s a complex process, fingers flying and interlocking, each gesture laden with meanings that an outsider can’t even fathom

  5. 7.0 |   Spectrum Culture

    As impressive as the work is overall, it may be only compelling and enjoyable for the trio’s existing fans

  6. 7.0 |   Under The Radar

    So many jerks of the steering wheel may not be for the faint of heart, but the trio coheres remarkably well, and the blizzard of ideas works like regular blasts of fresh oxygen or caffeine

  9. 6.7 |   Consequence Of Sound

    Occasionally reaches interstellar heights

  10. 6.0 |   The Irish Times

    The sweet spot here carries flashes of what they do for a living with their other groups, yet there’s never a sense that we’re getting the greatest hits treatment by proxy

  11. 5.8 |   Pitchfork

    Flitting from one chrome plaything to another gets exhausting quickly
    Read Review

  12. 5.5 |   Earbuddy

    Worth a listen at the very least for the curiosity is garners, but don’t expect it to be the sum of these three’s talents
    Read Review

  13. 5.0 |   The Music

    A sonically diverse, inherently bizarre exploration of everything from hip hop beats to psych rhythms
    Read Review

  14. 4.0 |   Loud And Quiet

    We hear nothing new – certainly not from Adebimpe’s camp – meaning that ‘Nevermen’ never really moves beyond mere vanity project

  15. 4.0 |   The FT

    The three men share vocals, but it’s unclear what they’re rapping or singing about: the effect is a babble

  16. 2.0 |   NOW
