    Life After Defo is both complex and accessible, intricate and immediate.

    This is a lovely, gentle record; with some of those tentative edges smoothed away, Woolhouse could be a keeper.

    Deptford Goth's ghost R&B keens admiringly in the direction of Bon Iver and Active Child. [Apr 2013, p.69]

    Woolhouse mostly lives up to the dark nature of his moniker, but for brief moments he glimpses light at the end of the tunnel.

    Like some of his peers, Woolhouse can be a little too subtle for his own good, but on Life After Defo, he's crafted a promising debut with a distinctively cozy take on life's bittersweet moments.
