If it doesn't quite scale the dizzy heights of 'The Holy Bible' or 'Everything Must Go', it certainly comes close and is, in many ways, the quintessential Manics album - the cathartic regeneration that the band really needed in order to become relevant again. (NME)

"Send Away The Tigers" is not only the most enjoyable Manics record in years, it's the most consistent. (Dot Music)

„Send Away The Tigers“ is the bloated swansong from a band that should have called it quits three albums ago. (Drowned in Sound)
