Ultimately, Future Women's fractured personality gives the album drama.
-
Definitely the sound of a band indie lovers need to check out immediately.
-
Alternative PressThe M's understand the value of a smartly delayed compositional payoff. [Mar 2006, p.124]
-
MojoAll this ambitioin coagulates into an irresistible, tumbling, tune-filled whole. [Dec 2006, p.118]
-
It's a dense, ambitious record that finally has the confidence needed to pull of the swagger they've been approximating.
-
One hell of a catchy album that gets better and better with each successive listening.
-
These four Kinks followers have incorporated all manner of brass and strings into turn of the millennium Top 40 rock sensibilities, with shades of early Flaming Lips indie psychedelia and classic rock songwriting.
-
Paste MagazineAs sophisticated as these songs are, it's The M's' offhanded performance that really sells them, giving Future Women the feel of a particularly solid live show. [Apr/May 2006, p.111]
-
The M's and their "Future Women" not only jog the memories of rock past, but are memorable in their own right.
-
UncutAt their best when strings and horns--even a sousaphone--let some air flood through a dense mix, they could even be an American Supergrass in waiting. [Sep 2006, p.89]
-
Compared to their eponymous EP-compilation debut, Future Women demonstrates more judicious restraint, maturity even.
-
They make a better Shins than a Stooges. For anyone looking for a relative of the former with an interestingly rough sound and loads of potential, the M's are good to go right now; but the rest of us are stuck mining gems from amidst muck, like normal.
-
Under The RadarUninspired and monotonous. [#13, p.93]
