"This is an interesting mash up of that Mississippi country blues style with some more modern rock influences. Kent starts out the album with a track that has him sounding a bit more as if he is from Chicago with vocals that are reminiscent of Buddy Guy with the driving rock beat of "Country Boy." Things slow down from there quickly with the brooding sounds of the title track slow blues "My World Is So Cold." On "Spoonful" we get a little bit of '60s psychedelic sound thrown into the mix".

"Quite a few of these songs are build on the kind of single-chord, modal theme usually associated with hill country blues, although they're mostly updated with a spiky propulsiveness borrowed from modern rock and R&B ... Other outings, such as the minor-key title song, are more musically adventurous. Burnside is an expressive singer, capable of summoning an almost terrifying sense of desolation and then cutting into declamatory fierceness without missing a beat ... The north Mississippi hill country blues legacy is in good hands".
