  1. Drowned In Sound

    If French-born London émigrés John & Jehn don’t quite succeed in nailing the stroppy friction of their live shows over the course of their self-titled debut, third base is at least within groping distance.

    The one constant is their ability to chill the nape hairs, which ultimately is all that matters. [Apr 2008]

    With songs that face the pain and torment of neurotic fears, John & Jehn have crafted an absolutely stunning album of beautiful and noisy sounds placed atop slow, steady tempos and invigorating dance beats alike.
  5. New Musical Express (NME)
    50
    John & Jehn probably imagine themselves as Serge Gainsbourg’s Bonnie And Clyde, when in reality they’re more like the indie-goth Richard & Judy.

    A bigger budget and they'll get really interesting. [May 2008, p.135]

    The record is reassuringly free of goo.
