    Low on drama but high on seemingly effortless jangle pop brilliance, Calling Out feels like a long-lost classic and an exciting discovery.

    Calling Out is an excellent first dish by EZTV, a sweet thing that makes one excited to hear what they serve up next.

    Almost every track in Calling Out features a good sorting of conspicuous power chords provided by frontman Ezra Tenenbaum, a reminder that it’s not just about fidgeting with careful arpeggios.

    At its best this is a confident début that will doubtless please lovers of hooky, carefully crafted guitar pop.

    Simplicity means the record occasionally feels samey, but it seems mean to criticise something that feels so pure.

    Rich with endlessly ringing guitars and gleaming hooks, this lithe debut is indebted to the gentler side of '70s power pop and '80s underground jangle.

    In short, Calling Out's not a bad shout if you're looking for something calm and unruffled to soundtrack the summer. [Aug 2015, p.104]
