"Absolutely stunned, that the mission could pull this off, dont get me wrong I'm glad they did. They lost themselves somewhere after Carved in Sand, and this is their glorious return to form. The songs are deep, and what you expect from the ones who brought us Children, which is to me their best work.
I'm a long term Mish fan, and hope that they will keep making vital music."
21 Years later this band prove they can still shine

"From the very first to the very last note, this album takes the listener across and vast and varied landscape of a very contemporary soundscape that many thought Wayne Hussey and Co. could never deliver after their heyday of successes with Children and Carved In Sand.
This band has been misbranded and misunderstood for much of their career; many have written them off as a has-been Goth band, others just trying to ride the 80's revival wave. Let me tell you now, none of those are true.
If you have never listened to the Mission, or thought that they really weren't your taste, may i suggest that this is the album you should purchase - the tunes are contemporary, more pop-orientated and permeate your brain, spinning the songs over and over in your head so much that you just have to go listen again.
2007 is the year for The Mission and God is a Bullet.
