Reviews5 Stars - Indispensable - "...Richer in harmony and texture than those found on the HARDLINE album, these are melodies that cross-fertilize soul and psychedelia, hard rock and funk as if poured from the same packet of seeds...more than just a tour de force; it has that emotional resonance shared by all truly great pop records...", Ranked #30 in the Village Voice's 1993 Pazz & Jop Critics Poll., Highly Recommended - "...As the lost link between Sam Cooke and Basehead, D'Arby is a soul singer for an age that has no faith in passion...the singer's third and best album...the overdue SYMPHONY OR DAMN reconciles its roots with an uprooted present....", Included in Q's list of `The 50 Best Albums Of 1993' - "...a brazen, rollicking tour de force that shows D'Arby as a casual master of any number of musical styles...", 4 Stars - Excellent - "...blurs the lines between pop, rock, funk and rap in a way that few artists are ambitious enough to attempt and fewer still are talented enough to achieve...D'Arby proves himself to be one of the finest, most versatile singers on the contemporary scene...", "...It hangs together as a cohesive work of art--and a collection of top-notch songs--making SYMPHONY OR DAMN a must-hear..." - Rating: A, "...an epic passion play that couldn't be more accessible. Or much better...a thrilling, state-of-the-art pop record..."
