Sep 10, 2013The album shrewdly brings order to the disorder, without streamlining away the band’s agreeably quirky identity.
-
MagnetSep 3, 2013The most enjoyable weird record of its career. [No. 101, p.52]
-
Sep 10, 2013Ultimately, you’ll get as much out of On Oni Pond as you put in; you might find yourself putting it on as background music, then letting other tasks fall by the wayside as you try to decipher how these little ditties pack so much punch.

Alternative PressSep 3, 2013Man Man are still digging around in a diverse bag of influences. Fortunately, they keep pulling out winners. [Sep 2013, p.90]
-
Under The RadarSep 3, 2013Sure, the album treads little new ground, but this is a band that's done more than enough boundary-pushing in its lifetime to earn a little slack. [Aug-Sep 2013, p.92]

Sep 10, 2013So while softer and more empathetic the band isn’t quite tamed yet; On Oni Pond is a Man Man album through and through, delivering an occasionally bizarre and fantastical look at the very real human condition.

Sep 6, 2013Each album in the band's discography has benefitted from a sense of chaos, an always-looming and welcome threat that things could come unhinged at any moment. The uninspired and wearisome On Oni Pond never creates such tension.
