Reviews4 stars out of 5 -- "There's an imaginative sympathy that keeps you listening and engaged....His idiosyncratic approach marks him out from the usual run of career singers, and it shows no sign of weakening.", Ranked #27 in Spin's "40 Best Albums Of 2009" -- "Thankfully, acting middle-aged doesn't mean he's grown up.", "The outcome is an entertaining bluesy, dirty kind of rock and roll that seems all too often forgotten amidst a new generation of shiny subgenres.", "It's a Jutting, Joking, Hard-Riffing Jolt Filled with Raw Self-Deprecation.", "Cocker plays with different styles on each track, from the back-alley blues rock of 'Homewrecker' to the garage pop of the first single 'Angela'....There's still reason to hang on his every word...", "The raucousness of 'Homewrecker!' or the title track will come as a definite surprise to longtime Cocker watchers..." -- Grade: B+, 4 stars out of 5 -- "It's a wonderful surprise that FURTHER COMPLICATIONS turns out to be such a reinvigorated piece of work. Much of this freshness must be down to the working methods of Steve Albini...", 4 stars out of 5 -- "Jarvis himself comes up with some of is wittiest lyrics since Pulp's heyday....All the more engaging for its honesty...", 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "Cocker's excellent second solo disc sets hilariously over-the-top come-ons to bruising garage rock and woozy soul...", "This collection of surging and reeling tunes is the former Pulp frontman's strongest since DIFFERENT CLASS."
