  1. Almost Cool
    90
    While Happiness never gets up and rocks, it's solid from beginning to end.
  2. Playlouder
    80
    Distant connections are subconsciously weaved into an undulating whole that fans of electronica, Tortoise and Mogwai will all appreciate - at least in parts.
  3. New Musical Express (NME)
    80
    Easily their finest record yet, a genre-shrugging masterpiece of delicate musicianship and warm feeling.
