    Gloss Drop is a definitely strong final outcome.

    The disc's closing one-two punch of "white Electric" and "Sundome," render Glass Drop a triumph, and a major evolutionary leap. [July 2011, p.44]

    Like those early EPs, Gloss Drop relies more heavily on complex rhythms and wonky melodies to get its point across.
