Eric R. Danton wrote in his Hartford Courant blog Sound Check: "Although it was plenty annoying, KT Tunstall’s 2006 song 'Black Horse and the Cherry Tree' was also catchy enough to make the tune, and her debut album, surprise hits. The Scottish singer builds on the promise of her first album with 'Drastic Fantastic,' a set of taut folk-rock tunes with a pop edge. She sings with gritty strength over rhythmic acoustic guitars augmented by electric guitar and mandolin on 'Funnyman' and murmurs sweetly over somber minor-key accompaniment on 'White Bird.' Tunstall’s sophomore effort pushes her forward and it’s clear she’s still growing as a songwriter" (9/19/07).
