    Expressions, wasn’t noted for its restraint, but Impressions ramps everything up multiple notches: in these songs, love is overwhelming, an inferno, the blaze of every star; riffs are chugging, galloping, relentless; piano chords clang, while synthesisers replicate the lights whirling from mirror balls.

    Impressions is a wonderfully fun and deep listen that stuns right away with its channeling of ABBA, but also sticks around thanks to the craft and invention that went into its creation.

    With Impressions they’ve ventured so far into irony they’ve come back around to sincerity, leaving in their wake one of the more unabashedly celebratory and enjoyable dance pop albums of 2014.

    At its best, a healthily camp, good-spirited fusion on Abba and Blondie. [Sep 2014, p.98]

    On Impressions, Music Go Music have created a recreation of a bygone era with none of its character.

    It's an indulgence for the ABBA fan inside us all, and sometimes we just have to give in. [Sep/Oct 2014, p.77]

    Music Go Music are talented mimics, but Impressions still makes its own presence felt. [Oct 2014, p.116]
