  1. The A.V. Club
    91
    Our Inventions is ultimately an album for modern nostalgists—folks who miss the crisp electronica and springy pop that originally put Morr Music on the map.
  2. Delusions of Adequacy
    80
    Lali Puna’s Our Inventions mesmerizes with wonderfully layered and intricately constructed electronic sound manipulations that are tastefully crafted into experimental pop songs.
  3. Q Magazine
    80
    The four-piece, fronted by Valerie Trebeljahr, rarely ever risk bereaking a sweat on Our Inventions. Theirs is a world where icy electro clicks and surges in sublime slow-mo. [May 2010, p.122]

  4. Uncut
    60
    Despite its meaty themes Our Inventions feels rather slight. [May 2010, p.94]
