Sep 10, 2012Love This Giant is a skewed and funky instant classic.
-
Sep 10, 2012The duo successfully crosses Clark's talent of romanticizing morbidity through melody and Byrne's knack for eccentric pop by using a prominent horn section both as a bridge between the two and an unfamiliar element that distinguishes this as a partnered effort.
-
Sep 6, 2012Byrne and Clark have managed to not only meet but exceed expectations, and created one of the year's smartest albums in doing so.

Sep 21, 2012Pop sensibilities are allowed to swell over, into and around each other; each song blends the seams of the core into a fragmented, disjointed, appropriately-meshing of sounds and in the end, Love this Giant is a magnificent triumph because of it all.
