    The poetry is too good, the gloom too cached in symbolism and fine melodies to feel trite or melodramatic.
  2. Pitchfork

    The cumulative effect of Shut Up I Am Dreaming surpasses "I'll Believe in Anything"'s ostensible perfection. That's a brilliant song, yes, but this a brilliant album, ballooning with those sorts of moments on repeat.
  3. Billboard
    60
    "Shut Up I Am Dreaming" is a grower, and doesn't grab you by the ears like Wolf Parade's debut did.
