The Guardian ranked Perpetual Musket at #9 in its "10 Best Folk Albums of 2024," highlighting it as a "brilliant collection of traditional folk covers through the lens of dub reggae."
The Quietus included the album at #28 in its "Albums of the Year 2024"
Truth & Lies Music awarded the album a perfect score, stating: "A ridiculously good release that manages to decant centuries of English folk traditions into the Jamaican folk tradition."
Ban Ban Ton Ton describes Perpetual Musket as a "concept album" that serves as a "veiled commentary on our war-torn globe," addressing themes like refugee crises and economic austerity.
"Elijah Minnelli’s rendition of ‘Lifeboat Mona’ is truly excellent. It is a moving mixture of percussion, harmony and vocals that knows how to tell a story. Vocalist Earl Sixteen does it JUST RIGHT. All the elements of the song, as I wrote it back in December 1959, are still there. Thanks to all for doing it so well." - Peggy Seegar
