Apr 9, 2012Family Perfume Vol. 1 wafts with a brilliant array of aromas, drifting from atmospheric psychedelia to homegrown folk melodies that leave a lingering sweetness in your mouth.
-
Apr 9, 2012If the album in its entirety feels open-ended, well, that's because it is, but by any measure Family Perfume is a pleasantly disarming ride, loaded with great, barely noticeable moments.
-
May 11, 2012Presley finds melodic inspiration in classic rock, but blurs his reference points toward punk by coating the music in lo-fi grit. His third proper album, Family Perfume, doubles down on those zonked out inclinations.
-
Apr 9, 2012The album's greatest quality is its experimentation, its occasional burst of punk emotion ("Soaring pique daily number 2″) and the way it can transition seamlessly into feel-good organ and upbeat acoustic guitar on the next track ("A Hermes Blues").
-
Apr 9, 2012Vol. 1 is commendable and helps make the album a worthy addition to White Fence's excellently warped catalog.
-
Under The RadarJul 9, 2012The record's a dream for lovers of acid-fried psychedelia. [Jun 2012, p.158]
-
May 17, 2012The unpredictable mix incites some strange transitions, occasionally cutting off promising grooves to the album's detriment ("Groundskeeper Rag," especially, peaks prematurely). But what Family Perfume lacks in momentum it makes up for in brevity.
