about

Roundly disproving the thin theory of a diminishing return from long term groups, Birmingham's chosen few triumph on this wonderful set, inspired as the title says, by a museum of imaginary animals. Reminding the listener in places of Herbie Hancock-era Miles and the deepest dub cuts, but mostly Pram's own wonderful world, it really says more about the terrible state of the music media that this record seems almost to have slipped past unnoticed.

The new direction of prog? I would not be opposed! There is some immensely inventive and creative song-crafiting going on here--not to mention the mind-blowing heart-felt,100% all-in vocal performances of Ollie Judge. I am a believer! wafiii

A big, epic, monstrous beast of an album in which everything that was promised by the previous two records comes to fruition. The final track is an almost ambient palate cleanser. Listeners who have only heard her debut album will be so phenomenally unprepared for what they're about to hear. Ed Martin

Like so many others, this came like a bolt out of the blue and, even though it's well before payday, I had to have this astonishing album on vinyl to prove it exists. The feel of the tunes makes me feel like the Impressions do, Curtis Mayfield, the big spaces and instinctive horns and stuff drifting in and out. Great grooves and I can see lots of ghosts nodding along to this with big smiles on their faces. At last! Anthony Cottrell
