Precious Falling is the second album by Quickspace, released in 1998.[2][3]
The Independent called Precious Falling "a confidently diverse album, ranging from murkier, muted vocal early tracks like 'Take Away' to the country-flavoured, violin-weeping epic, 'Goodbye Precious Mountain'."[4] The Sunday Times determined that "tunes that Stereolab would render with academic earnestness are here given a good kicking, wobbly girl-boy vocals lending everything an air of first-take euphoria."[5]
AllMusic wrote: "Most interesting are the experimental and filmic songs like 'Hadid', 'The Mountain Waltz' and 'Goodbye Precious Mountain', where the band stretch their remixing and arranging skills."[1] Magnet thought that "where Stereolab made music for cocktail parties and designer drugs, Quickspace’s Cullinan and singer Nina Pascale were loaded for mushrooms and cheap wine."[6]
