"Even being able to speculate positively about The Cribs' future should be a cause of celebration these days, given that the band were so recently considering calling it a day. But this album gives ample reason to be cheerful going forward, and the trio now have a genuine shot at being a force in their own right in this new decade. It may begin with a 'Goodbye', but 'Night Network' isn't the sound of a run-down band staggering towards the finish line. Far from it - The Cribs have just embarked on a victory lap".
