| | Central: Reviews, Discography, Audio Clips, and more ||| Music.com |
 | | With its minimalistic approach to instrumentation, Central seems not so much interested in enveloping a listener as it is--like most pop--in insinuating its melodies inside that listener, and it does so with restraint and slow repetition that never sounds muted and never, despite its subdued nature, sorrowful, though it is often melancholy. |
 | | Understatement is the name of the game for Nord Express, but it is not a case of being too subtle or not revealing enough in or through the music. |
 | | As a listener you know there is a point, and you know that Nord Express will eventually come to that point in their own sweet time, but they do not always let you in on the ending, only on the process, before everything slows to a halt. |
