May 7, 2015The album is executed slickly enough that this lack of cohesion isn't a huge problem. The goofy lyrics, though, owe too much to the hippy-dippy era.
-
May 4, 2015Songs such as Beginning to Fade maintain Django Django’s easy pop touch. Much of the rest, though, is merely good filler rather than truly great floor-filler.

May 7, 2015Born Under Saturn is only intermittently gripping. Certain tracks feel heavily procedural and oddly joyless given the album’s lighthearted tone.

-
May 7, 2015Stylistically, Born Under Saturn is an unfortunate step backward for a promising, unique artist.

UncutApr 29, 2015The sense of fun has dissipated on Born Under Saturn, an hour of faintly psychedelic heads-down boogie. [Jun 2015, p.75]
