Pilgrims Progress bonus tracks
Tue 20th, Jul
Due to a manufacturing error some of the first run Pilgrim’s Progress CDs have an incorrect tracklisting (hold on to these they’ll be like gold dust in future!). The tracklisting on these albums suggest they have 3 bonus tracks that are not actually on the disc. If you own one of these albums you can now claim the additional 3 tracks…

Fri 9th, Jul
“..three-part harmonies and sweeping strings ensure it always feels like more than the sum of it’s parts.”
Q magazine **** (4 stars)
“Pilgrims Progress is a stunning return.”
Soundcheck Magazine 9/10
“Pilgrims Progress really shines is in its rare ability to present the sounds of another era in a setting that feels mature, fresh, current and progressive. It is a leap forward for both Kula Shaker and for modern rock and roll in general.”
Obscure Sound 9/10
“…an outing built on mature songwriting and solid technical performances.”
Slant Magazine **** (4 stars)
“…there is something celebratory and triumphant in this music, a positivity all too rare in today’s music.”
The Music Fix 8/10
“…Crispian Mills is on top form vocally and his calm, soothing voice echoes out in that Jeff Buckley manner, where lyrics need not be award-winning, giving the sheer strength and natural ability of Mills. Beautiful violins and orchestral appearances throughout make this a gentle introduction to the all new Kula Shaker experience. ”
Altsounds 8/10
“KS decided to find out definitively what they were capable of. And impressively enough, they pull it off.”
Drowned in Sound 7/10
“A very decent fourth album which might even win them some new fans.”
BBC
