Q MagazineSep 21, 2011Elsewhere they veer off into roboid electro, but a certain lack of variety costs points. [Oct 2011, p.124]
-
MojoSep 19, 2011Gravity the Seducer aims to be the great leap forward but still falls a little short. [Oct 2011, p.98]

Sep 13, 2011Gravity the Seducer is a transitional album bearing the growing pains and separation anxiety that we usually associate with bands that are in between periods of true inspiration.
