National and international reviews are beginning to come in for Big Sea, and they are full of praise.
Vive le Rock gave the LP 9/10 in Issue 78, writing ‘[an] astonishing album…if you can imagine Tom Waits collaborating with the early Captain Beefheart on a set of folk-psych songs, you’ll be somewhere close to the sound of ‘Big Sea’…utterly intriguing from start to finish.’
Receiving 5 stars in the November/December issue of RnR Magazine, Nick Burbridge wrote ‘There is an extraordinary intensity about this album…and [its] dark but sublime musings on mortality, sin and the divine…intelligent and articulate work couched in never-less-than-interesting, and often breath-taking musical arrangement…I can only say I’m deeply grateful for a unique encounter.’
Big Sea was also selected as one of Louder Than War’s best albums of 2020.
