    Even at their most technically complex, Twerps still maintain a low-key, laidback, indie-rock appeal. They pull off charming pop that sounds tender and thrilling at the same time.

    Range Anxiety provides plenty of action and feeling, though not always in the ways you catch on a surface listen.

    Twerps couch enough of a dark streak beneath their mostly sunny exterior to promise future explorations outside their current box.

    Range Anxiety is a deeply considered listen, one that relinquishes the audacious idiosyncrasies of Underlay EP in favor of a more scrupulous and intrinsic approach.

    The band generally favour simplicity and great hooks on this fine second album. [Mar 2015, p.84]

    Highlights are too rare here, and not entirely impressive in and of themselves. [Nov-Dec 2014, p.68]

    A minimum of chords are played with minimum effort. Generic lyrics abound.
