    Atmospheric and unsettling, it's a thrilling, long dark night of the soul. [Feb 2014, p.116]

    Cutting Up The Present Leaks The Future is a refreshing listen. Its lo-fi aesthetic, invigorating guitar approach, nuanced throwbacks, heartfelt lyrics and general quality (among many other fascinating titbits) all make for a lovely record.

    An album which feels lovingly crafted, full of moments that only reveal themselves after multiple listens.

    Yes, they write pretty and moving songs, but it’s reasonable to expect more from a band with a history of writing such sophisticated pop.
