Since the turn of the century, the Fall's output has been as predictable as Rush's old "three studio albums, then a live one" way of doing things. For the Fall it's "one cracking, great album, then one that's shoddily put together". Compilations from outside sources - which have been generally very good since 2000 - muddle up the sequence a bit, but we're talking band-approved releases, which the live/rehearsals/leftovers Interim is. With some exciting new tracks, Interim beats 2G+2 - a similar collection from 2002 - by a mile, but noisy audience recordings, odd tape edits, and chaotic rambling makes this a better hardcore-fan album than an introduction to the band. ~ David Jeffries, All Music Guide
