    A lot of the songs are solid hits in the making.

    An intoxicating brand of synth-pop that's slicker than a Gordon Gekko coif.
  3. 70
    Mostly: total bliss session.

    Big grooves, smart beats, it's all technically on-point, but it lacks an original pace or narrative-pretty much neutering any melody or songcraft from the get-go.

    Diver's appeal is immediate, its effect short and sharp. [Sep 2012, p.104]

    It's amicable, it's friendly for the shoes, but it's like watching a mud-covered wild horse frantically kick at the locked barn doors.

    Diver is depressingly one-note, trimming back the band's scope and muscle. For some reason, Callan Clendenin sings every line in the same tiring, vacant croon, and its charm fades with each track, as does the Garageband-style production.
