"This album was more than a surprise for me, I didn't expect to like it as much as I did at all. It seems like it has influences sprawling from The Antlers to even twinkly early emo bands like American Football. I can't recommend this album enough, it's full of raw emotion and tight instrumentals...." [+] Reply
"It has a lot of energy and all of the tracks flow together nicely, making it engaging pretty much the entire way through." Reply
"I've listened to this album a couple of times by now. It's definitely one of the stronger efforts from this year's album outputs. Baths create a thick fog of dark electronic and experimental sounds. I especially love the track Earth Death, it has a really dark midnight vibe to it." Reply
"Less an album and more of a short story scored by a garage rock band's take on a spaghetti western soundtrack. A totally wild concept that is more-or-less pulled off successfully. Atmospherically, Eyes Like the Sky is a triumph. If you listen carefully, you can even hear the tumbleweeds rolling b..." [+] Reply

"I'm French and La Femme, it's a bit like the french band I dreamed about. A delicious sound, eighties, a nice and original imagery, and fantastic lyrics... in French! This album is science fiction. A pure staging with psychedelic accents that listens attentively. La Femme is the little electro-po..." [+] Reply
"Laura Mvula's debut is a welcome breathe of freshness different from Jill Scott & Erykah Badu, whom she lists as influences but there are some similarities. There is also a bit of Bjork in the orchestration. Not a bad track here the standout tracks being Sing To The Moon, Green Garden, She, What ..." [+] Reply

"Hard hitting, scene forming, angst spewing. All qualities needed for an album to be considered a pop-punk masterpiece. This album is all those things, you do the math." Reply
