Nov 26, 2012Whatever happens next, she can rest assured safe in the knowledge that together with her beau they've conjured up one of 2012's--or any other year in recent memory--finest debuts.
-
Nov 5, 2012What it all adds up to isn't big-push psych loonycakes like The Flaming Lips, but something more subtly disorienting.

MojoDec 17, 2012[A] luscious layercake of flange and Echoplex. [Jan 2013, p.90]

Oct 1, 2012Breathy vocals, immensely hooky songwriting and a brilliantly defined technicolor aesthetic established from the very beginning. Such description could have been thrown at Stereolab in the early '90s and at Broadcast in the early 2000s.

Nov 5, 2012Sophisticated yet uncomplicated, misty yet vibrant, luxurious yet disquieting, 'Melody's Echo Chamber' is a lovely record full of dualities.

Nov 5, 2012Crystallised, in particular, kicks into a deeply satisfying psych-rock crunch halfway through - a reverb-heavy, robust foil for Prochet's feathery voice. But for much of the unfocused second half of the album, their sounds stray into Stereolab-lite.
