Q MagazineOct 3, 2014Playland is better than its predecessor in pretty much every respect. The songs are better, the palette broader and there's a genuine sense of Marr hitting his stride as a solo artist. [Nov 2014, p.103]
-
Alternative PressOct 6, 2014More like sophomore triumph. [Nov 2014, p.94]
-
MagnetNov 5, 2014A gorgeous, seductive album. [No. 114, p.56]
-
UncutOct 2, 2014Playland is pretty much "The Messenger Part 2." [Nov 2014, p.77]
