    While the band introduces new elements with this release, its shoegaze dream-pop still underlies each track, with many familiar experimental tangents scattered throughout.

    This album is a great start for anyone who leans on the more accessible sides of ambient/indie music.

    Joyful and experimental in equal measure, Fluorescence is an album that challenges you without you even realising.

    Fans of the early dream pop stuff may have difficulties accepting a cleaner, more synthesized pop approach.
