"Original '70s no wave lynchpin Arto Lindsay guests on two songs, his vocals bringing a sweet melancholy to the mannered jazz tinkle of `Classify'. And if their brand of ambience sometimes fades into the background, their semi-secret weapon - drummer Ronald Lippok - ignites tracks like `Down In The Traffic' with krautrock-like percussive fluidity".

"It's been a hefty while since we last heard from To Rococo Rot, and there's an argument to be made that they weren't quite ready. Perhaps some more studio time would've knocked off the rust that'd accumulated; it's not that any of Instrument is bad, it's just... emotionless. Flaccid. Where some of the cuts, like 'Gitter', 'Pro Model', or 'Many Descriptions' evoke vibrant feelings, others ignite a giant pile of 'meh' inside your brain".
