It'll blow you away...

"Well, that's what 'In Your World' did to me. The moment I listened to it, I fell in love with the song and knew it would be my favourite song of this year, maybe my favourite song of all time. I have both studio albums, both are great, but no song comes even close to In Your World. I can try and describe why, but maybe it's better to find out for yourself. The money spent on this shouldn't be seen as a cost, but as a sound investment..."
Brilliant!

"At first, this double-A side from Radiohead-except-not-so-happy turned space-grunge trio seems a bit indistinguishable from their second album, but after a few listens its charms begin to unfold. In Your World is a tortured, Bach-inspired rock number, whilst the undeniably superior Dead Star, is pure sonic assault: the heaviest they've ever done, raging in its own fury with choppy chords verging on metal in the verse, and a vicious, screaming hookline of 'it's coming your way!' sung over madly distorted guitars and thrashing, pounding drums, leading into the angriest chorus conceivable and a recurring Korn-like riff. Origin of Symmetry might have laid to rest the Radiohead ghosts, but this batters them round the room with a fury so visceral it threatens to turn its rage on anyone who would ever dare to disagree. As a B-side we have a mad version of 'Can't Take My Eyes Off You', starting quite similar to the original but playing the trumpet bit as a guitar solo and sounding like classic tortured Muse by the normally happy refrain of 'I love you baby, and if it's quite alright...'. Fantastic stuff."
