New Musical Express
‘Careful What You Wish For’s quality--along with that of everything else here, not least the closing ‘Silent Night’, featuring a full church choir epically utilised to yank up every hair on the back of the listener’s neck--re-confirms Glasvegas’ position as the most exciting British band right now.

A Snowflake Fell could have worked as a series of effective B-sides or bonus tracks on the aforementioned album package.
