In a four-star review of ‘(watch my moves)’, NME said:” Vile has always been the epitome of someone comfortable in their own skin, but he displays that more than ever on this spacey and sprawling adventure.

“We’re transported to leafy suburban American backstreets with one meandering vocal melody, and even placed in a great American forest on his reflective ode to his Philadelphia, ‘Mount Airy Hill (Way Gone)’. Nobody can transport you in quite the same way this outsider can, and the world’s a much better place for his unwavering presence.”
