"There is folk that wants to whisper in your ear, and then there is the music of Lankum: urgent, desperate and detonating, full of lyrics and sounds smacking together like waves shattering stones in a storm. The latest folk signing to Rough Trade Records (a label delving brilliantly into traditional song in recent years), the quartet - formerly known as Lynched - marry the rawness of the Watersons with the roar of Richard Dawson, and eerie drones plunge their coarse, clattering harmonies further into darkness. What Will We Do When We Have No Money? is a particularly startling opener, Radie Peat's vocals loading the Irish Traveller song with the impacts of poverty and pain"

"The four-piece (...) play a brand of folk music far removed from the staid, polite and essentially backwards-looking stereotypes associated with the genre. Their influences range from the obvious (the manic punk-folk of the Pogues) to the downright eccentric (their use of modernistic drone would have made LaMonte Young proud) via saucy snippets of music-hall and driving Krautrock rhythms ... Lankum may have a new name, but they are still one of the most talented and original bands around, and this album is a vital, bracing piece of work"

"The artists formerly known as Lynched (...) are back steeped in controlled passion and bruised purity with a name borrowed from an infamous child murderer of ballad renown. Pinpointing what makes them so special isn't easy - they are in many respects a retro band, with a strong lineage through the Irish music greats, Planxty et al, and they have clearly invested in the history of their traditiona and culture. And yet, without any of the udsual artefacts of style, arrangement and studio trickery, they also sound profoundly modern and of the day; and while much has been made of their "attitude" and early immersion in punk, they don't tend to rant or rave or get in your face"
