Reception[edit]

Jonty Simmons from Beat Magazine called the album "..a mature successor" to Sentry's 2012 debut This Was Tomorrow saying "In 'Violin', Sentry pours out his heart and soul for his absentee mother. It's an album highlight that epitomises the changes Sentry has gone through during his journey to success. With his trademark cheek finally applied to something other than shying away from responsibility, Strange New Past is a huge step forward for Seth Sentry.[9]
