 "The Courage Of Others bewilders anyone at first listen because it is a thousand times more homogeneous than the previous album, more dark and melancholic and therefore slower."

 "If Occupanther was closer to a certain soft-rock from the mid-seventies and Radiohead, the new work lands on territories closer to late sixties England, reminding us of the prog-folk of Fairport Convention or Jethro Tull."

The Courage Of Others by Midlake presents a darker, slower, and more melancholic sound compared to their previous work, with more uniformity but fewer standout singles. Drawing influences from late-sixties English prog-folk and bands like Fairport Convention and Jethro Tull, the album offers a refined compositional structure with prominent flute and electric guitar parts.
