When is a studio album by Vincent Gallo, released on Warp in 2001. It peaked at number 44 on the UK Independent Albums Chart.[7]

Critical reception[]

Tim DiGravina of AllMusic gave the album 4.5 stars out of 5, saying, "With its smart, confident arrangements, consistent tone, and fascinating personal themes, the album sees Gallo making a bold, confident, and mature musical step of considerable relevance."[1] James Keast of Exclaim! described it as "an atypical, eccentric and occasionally atonal exploration of simple sounds and dissonant piano and guitar plinking."[3]

Alex Needham of NME said, "Gallo may not be renowned for subtlety in his life, but he’s a master of it in his work."[4] David M. Pecoraro of Pitchfork gave the album a 7.3 out of 10, describing it as "a gorgeous collection of songs which paint an undeniably clear picture of their creator."[5]

In 2015, Clash included it on the "7 of the Best: Albums by Artists More Famous for Other Things" list.[8]
