There's no leaving now

"Førstehåndsindtrykket af albummet er, at det forekommer en smule ensformigt, idet der ikke er den store variation i lyd og tempo. Men! Når du først har gennemlyttet Kristian Matssons tredje udspil, givet dig tid og ladet dig overmande af svenskerens dragende sydstatsstemme, er der ingen tvivl om, at There's No Leaving Now bør finde vej til din pladesamling".

"The brisk speed and sense of soft mournfulness mixed with empathy on songs like "Revelation Blues" set his expected mode as ever, while also allowing for such good lines as "Sometimes it's just roses dying too young." The middle of the album provides the necessary shift in variety, with the title track -- the first on the album to be led by piano instead of guitar -- being one of the best, his voice's intrinsically "son of Richard Ashcroft" quality turning out to be just what was needed".
