| | David Sylvian: Camphor: Pitchfork Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03) |
 | | Pitchfork's thinking person's male crooner continuum places David Sylvian not so very far from the male crooner who guards the right-hand extremity of the continuum, Scott Walker. |
 | | Sitting on the left-hand extremity is Bono, nearby him Peter Gabriel, Marc Almond, Lou Reed, Gavin Friday, and the Laughing Gnome himself, David Bowie. |
 | | Sylvian thinks of himself as more than a pop star and leader of a long-defunct new wave band; he's an artist-in-sound, luvvie, and he's going out of his way to prove he could be more of an egghead than Brian Eno if he really wanted to be. |
