  1. Pigeons also finds Temple working well with others, the result being an inescapable momentum that begins with the unexpected funk of "Hibernation," one of the many songs that show an intimate understanding of Brian Enpo's Catalogue. [Spring 2010, p.63]
  2. It's at once a work of larger ambition and greater focus than its predecessor, beginning brilliantly and continuing in the same manner for its entire length.
  3. 60
    It's harmless, head-spinning fun. [Jul 2010, p.92]

    One of the best (and most underrated) albums of the year. Every composition is dense, beautiful, and intricate yet maintains a light playfulness that blows all this "chillwave" out of the water. I also saw them at bonnaroo, and every song became an awesome jam. Very excited to see what they do next. Expand
