"honestly I was impressed by this album, I thought that after Torches they would just fade out. And even though this album has no NO.1 single like "Pumped of Kicks", it might be even more consistent, creative, and more daring album. Enjoyable pop for all that it matters."  Reply

"It's nearly perfect from the sheer prospect of that in its short 30 minute run time, there isnt a weak point. Golden Chords is my favorite track of 2016 thus far. This LP will find a place in my top 5 at the end of this year, and if not- that will be a testament to the year itself."  Reply

"This album really gets you moving and has such a fantastic rhythm to it which is just so infectious. It really does groove and that is all down to the brilliant instrumentation with each aspect of the sound playing a vital role. The percussion is simply phenomenal with the bongos and timbales ste..."  [+]  Reply

"Really cool album. It's a step in the direction of "Hope" as a opposed to "Cope," which while I prefer the variety of sounds, emotions and dynamics captured in Mean Everything To Nothing and Simple Math, it's still a very interesting album and I also think that following in the quieter direction ..."  [+]  Reply

"The family jewels has plenty of duds and honestly wouldn't suffer if a few songs like "I am a robot" were cut. Despite this there is a lot to love on here. The fusion of baroque and electro pop creates a memorable sound. Marina's voice and lyricism do a good job creating personality."  Reply
