    Sleep Forever is about accepting mortality, and if its skill represents the possibilities of their earthly journey, long live Crocodiles.

    If San Diego's Crocodiles sound flawless on paper, they damn well prove it on record.

    Forever is a journey through the darker parts of the human mind. Death, love and a strange sense of optimism resonate through the reverb.
  4. BBC Music

    For the most part, though, the fuzz has been pulled back enough to reveal an enjoyable but hardly revolutionary set that tends to recall a more ponderous Darklands-era JAMC.
