    The doomed relationship cycle in eternal motion or the sound of a heart that won’t stay mended, Honeyblood is visceral pop music giving its prettiest snarl.

    The thrilling sound of these enthused new voyagers is equal parts sweetness and butchery. [Aug 2014, p.94]

    Honeyblood has plenty of possibilities, and a ton of potential. But it's also pretty darn potent already. [No. 111, p.55]

    Those artists who standout from the rest of the pack do exactly this with the additional knack of killer songwriting, and Honeyblood fortunately have that going for them in an abundance.

    Honeyblood has a core idea, but it sustains slight expansions of the musical palette.

    There's nothing new here, but it's all done with vim and effervescence.

    Where the music shimmers with earnest, well-intentioned conviction, it’s often let down by some terrible lyrics that make the album more throwaway than it otherwise might have been.
