3.5 great | Bedex | May 19th 20 | While the first half of this felt stronger than the prior LP, and this one having a lot more tracks I'll retain, as a record on the whole this felt weaker. It might be due to listening conditions and interruptions, but it feels like it drags on for a tad too long. Even though 14 and the closer are quite nice, by track 10 I was loosing track of the album really. Prior to that though, this offers nice fun songs when the band decides to have a lot of vocals. The opener, 7 and 9 are quite catchy songs in that regard, but the best track here is probably 4, the only song I'd call a jam. For the rest, this bears the same comment as the prior LP: it's nice, but not hooking. The band's instrumentals are sweet but to simple not to rely on vocals a bit to grab the listener. Still a nice effort, and while I rate it lower it has a better chance to end up in my library simply because of the better high points. 3.5

0.0 | former sputnik's home post-punk maester | March 26th 16 | I liked their previous album quite a bit. I like this one too, but for all the different reasons. While Oshin was fun and definitely listenable, it lacked any actual distinct momentum or appeal for me. Well, this one is trying to improve that and is not as memorable instead.

2.5 average | TheManMachine | March 5th 16 | Despite their dishy-dream guitar tones/feedbacker squeal-skills/generous bass-lines, the full-time glum-bounce apathy leaves 'em feeling vacuous from the get-go, and they fall so rapidly into reiterations that I wouldn't hesitate to call it impressive. But hey, dishy's dishy; they bore agreeably, keep a fine beat, nurture a stylistic formula enough to churn out a true ear-perker now and then, pay tribute to godfathers Can+Primal Scream with mantric amp-yowl jam-out, etc.

3.5 great | 00mee | March 1st 16 | Pleasant guitar-based surf rock. So many songs for repeat listens. Refreshing sound.

3.0 good | Jade | January 31st 16 | A small but appreciated step up from the debut with brighter, more vibrant melodies and a couple of true gems like Dopamine, Under the Sun, and the title track
