    Hanna's sub-Kevin Shields guitars and Chikudate's sparkling keyboards eddy across the Blondie-esque layers. [Feb 2009, p.113]

  2. No Ripcord

    This is a strong, satisfying record that will comfortably consolidate the band’s reputation as a genre favourite.
  3. Uncut
    80
    The dozen tunes here are sumptuous slices of bliss-pop with an art-punk edge. [Mar 2009, p.78]

    On their third release Asobi Seksu have toned down the fuzz’n’raunch of old and come over all Cocteau Twins-y and mature--not necessarily a bad thing, just quite a bit less visceral.

    Very impressive album, doesn't quite surpass citrus, but still worth a listen.

    This is a great album, less direct the their previous ones, more subtle and cerebral and needs of time and attention to be completely understood.
