E.S.T. zine - UK - June 92

"...Attrition's latest release is a pleasant surprise. Their new sound is far from restrained. All manner of instrumentation is evident, male and female voices intertwine among electronic, classical and medieval textures. This is refreshing, an uplifting, sentimental and beautiful album. A Tricky business has a classically minimal feeling that is the result of a successful fusion of high-tech ambience and strong personal songwriting."

Grim Humour zine - UK - summer 1992

"This album catches Attrition revisiting their earlier, more sinister sound, and integrating it with a mixture of fresh influences. Left field dance rythmns rub shoulders with orchestrated waves of keyboards and the swaying voice of Julia Waller, whilst well functioning bursts of experimentalism compliment Martin Bowes' grated vocals in an effort to balance things out. A Tricky Business proves that Attrition's 10+ years experience in the field has most certainly paid off."
