MagnetDec 14, 2012Thanks in part to producer Henning Furst, she succeeds in generating a summer feel-good vibe so potent, it'll feel all the better come winter. [No.92, p.59]
-
Dec 14, 2012Other Worlds doesn't get overtly weird, but it's surely expansive-sounding.
-
Dec 14, 2012Other Worlds proves Bergsman has a good thing going with these inspirational voyages, leaving the listener besotted and desperate to know just where she'll head next.
-
MojoDec 14, 2012A lush, shimmering and fully immersive experience. [Nov 2012, p.90]
-
Q MagazineDec 14, 2012At its best, Other Worlds is sublime. [Nov 2012, p.106]
-
UncutDec 14, 2012With Bergsman's dourly dreamy voice and wistful songcraft, it's recognisably indiepop, but sent delightfully pie-eyed on Blur Hawaiians. [Dec 2012, p.77]
-
Dec 14, 2012Just like East of Eden, Other Worlds works both as a sonic experiment and as an expression of Bergsman's adventurous soul.
-
Dec 14, 2012She flits in and out of the languid beats, looped synths, and quiet guitars.
-
Dec 14, 2012Staying on just this side of a Corona beer commercial, it sounds like a continuation of Bergsman's realizations carried over from East of Eden, in that a change in latitude brings about a change in attitude.
-
Dec 14, 2012Bergsman's new set pieces offer no more lasting sustenance than the harder to resist but hardly nutritious candies from The Concretes' confectionery.
-
Dec 14, 2012It's an altogether beautiful experience, if not a game-changing one, and clearly one to adopt a comfortably horizontal position to as you reach for the Hawaiian Tropic.
-
Dec 14, 2012Other Worlds is such a radiantly warm, luxuriously luminous heatwave of a record it can give you a suntan just listening to it.
-
Dec 14, 2012It manages to feel both too specific and not quite specific enough; while it sounds like her own personal sound world and collection of memories, the album lacks that relatable hook to draw the listener in.
-
Dec 14, 2012Much like Bergsman's previous efforts, Other Worlds' vocals have a heavy-lidded quality that may turn off listeners who prefer a more forceful rhythm section.
