  1. What makes Losing Feeling so solid is how it begins and ends.
  2. This isn’t the same set of music each time out, no, instead it’s a sincere evolution into something that all can behold. Many would be smart to learn from this band because they’ve obviously got “it” figured out.
  3. 80
    Milking the quiet-LOUD dynamic a drop more, this four-song EP's title track morphs a gentle guitar bath into a fuzz-pedal masterpiece.
  4. The pattern remains much the same on their new EP, Losing Feeling, although here, the DIY duo makes an effort at synthesizing the two halves of their personality: sonic assault and ambient drone.
  5. It’s better than Nouns, better than the best songs on Weirdo Rippers (2007), and for once, I think, offers this cool idea that Randy and Dean’s next record might move away from the unilateral and slightly prudish use of noise as nothing but noise.
  6. Under The Radar
    70
    No filler here. That's the glory of an EP, but also of No Age. [Fall 2009, p.73]
  7. Though Losing Feeling remains EP in stature and with its intentions, it’s still enjoyable and represents a need to keep testing different waters before diving headlong into their next murky stretch of creative water.
