    All Music Guide Review

    On The Abominable Showman, Lowe's fascination with country music begins to assert itself on a collection of songs that only seems lighthearted. While songs like "We Want Action" and "Tanque Ray" are nothing more than solid pop/rockers, "Time Wounds All Heels," "Raging Eyes," "Wish You Were Here," and "(For Every Woman Who Ever Made a Fool of a Man There's a Woman Who Made a) Man of a Fool" are exceptionally well-written songs, full of subtle emotional power and catchy melodies. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide
