"So much good music here. "Miles Davis" and "The End" are favorites. It's ridiculously long, but I can't decide whether that adds to or detracts from its greatness. It's tough to get through the whole thing in one sitting, but taken in pieces, it's all fantastic."  Reply

"Really chill album. Nice drumming and flute. Reminiscent of Foxygen but with a more blues & early rock influence. Very different stylistically to 'I'm In Your Mind Fuzz' and 'Nonagon Infinity'. Track Picks: 'The Bitter Boogie', 'Sense' , 'Most of What I Like'"  Reply

"Playful rock'n'roll, but a little too knowing and self congratulatory. Still, it is an enjoyable, slightly quirky pop album that still sounds fairly unique. Good album."  Reply
