...Sounds Like This is the third album from English progressive rock band Nektar, released in 1973. By far their heaviest album, numerous sections of the album contain lengthy, highly chaotic electric guitar and organ solos. The track "New Day Dawning" contains a reference to the Beatles song "Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown)".

Allmusic 4/5 stars[2]

Allmusic's brief retrospective review dismissed ...Sounds Like This as "a step backward, with lighter, less ambitious songs that didn't work as well as their long form sound."[2]
