"As if airing some precious lost and unmixed tapes from a recently discovered secret studio session involving Vashti Bunyan and guest players that Ivo Watts-Russell once conscripted from his extended 4AD family for This Mortal Coil albums." Concrete Islands

"This album is wistful and downbeat, yet comforting and captivating. It's a beautiful work of art, and a wonderful display of musical talent. Brilliant stuff." Fog Songs

Wholeness (released 2020): https://thelastdinosaur.backl.ink/wholenessalbum

"Wholeness is wonderful. Rarely has sorrow sounded so seductive." Elizabeth Alker, BBC Radio 3

"A deeply personal record and all the more affecting for it." Electronic Sound

"A very personal & artistic triumph, ‘Wholeness’ shimmers and dazzles like no other. Truly outstanding."
★★★★★ Get Ready to Rock

"The ultimate message of the album is that hope remains possible even in the hardest of circumstances. Demons can be conquered, at least for a time, long enough to declare the essential goodness of life." A Closer Listen

"Wholeness speaks to the heart with unrelenting intensity." Echoes and Dust

"This follow-up is poles apart from its predecessor. To use a Talk Talk analogy, if The Nothing was the semi-mainstream The Colour of Spring, Wholeness is a leap into Spirit of Eden/Laughing Stock territory." No More Workhorse

"Prepare yourself for a timeless moment of twenty-six minutes of delicate reverie between trembling folk, orchestral, and rainy ambience."
★★★★ 1/2 Sound of Violence

“Life is a muddled melting pot of uncertainty, joy, emptiness, confusion, hope and longing, one that we only drift through for a brief time before realising that everything is temporary and there are no real answers, and this album is no different.”
82% Belwood Music

"Wholeness is an acknowledgement that a human’s state is always temporary and mostly random, whilst at times exponentially breathtaking."

The Nothing (released 2017): smarturl.it/TheNothing

"Elegiac, cathartic, rewarding, and beautifully moving."
★★★★ Uncut Magazine

"A labour of love about life's transience and fragility."
★★★★ Mojo

"An extended meditation on life, death and memory."
★★★★ The Independent

"This profoundly personal album will linger long."
★★★★★ Music News

"All told, it’s the kind of record you could obsess about; the kind of record you’ll foist on friends, music that you know you’ll be playing months from now. Highly recommended."
★★★★ The Skinny

"Poignant."
★★★★ Classic Pop

"A wide-screen dreamscape of a record, brimming with emotion without ever becoming maudlin."
★★★★ NARC

"It's one of the albums that just needs to be heard."
★★★★ Norman Records

"An outstanding second album & mesmerising musical journey."
★★★★ AmericanaUK

"To say this is one of the best albums of 2017 doesn't do it any justice. It's beautifully written & composed, from its delicate atmospheres to its sweeping harmonies and bright, elaborate arrangements. One of the most accomplished indie folk albums you'll come across this year besides Father John Misty's Pure Comedy."
91% Sound & Silence

"It's soul bearing, heart wrenching & most importantly; breathtakingly honest. These qualities are the hallmarks of truly great artistry and Jamie Cameron has firmly cemented himself as a time transcending artist of impeccable quality."
The Line of Best Fit

"The Nothing manages to be elegant without pouring into the lachrymal or the neurasthenic. And just for that, it deserves all your attention." TSUGI

"The Nothing is an album of transcendent beauty and is one of the finest pieces of music I’ve had the privilege of reviewing."
