Excerpt: "<em>On Holiday </em>is<em> </em>more  than the sum of its much maligned rhythmic inspirations. In fact, much  of the album sounds completely pastoral, equally matching the title... Bennett's voice never strains to keep up with the relaxed canter  of his songs and sounds oddly similar to the ruddy baritone of XTC's Andy Partridge. <em>On Holiday</em> never sounds like an experiment or a manifesto, it is too good for  that. It simply swings on its own between scenic mountain drives and the  neon-lit palm trees of a smoky Sunset Strip juke joint. It is both of  those things and more."<a href="http://tometotheweathermachine.com/reviews/2010/08/rich-bennett" target="_blank">
