  1. The A.V. Club
    91
    For most of the songs amassed here, it still takes around 10 minutes to get the job done--threading those thick synthesizer blasts and all that skittering digital manna through a brick wall of guitar fuzz--but Fuck Buttons succeeds at turning its unpredictable epics into masterpieces of pacing and strange beauty.
  2. Drowned In Sound
    90
    Tarot Sport doesn't pause to bang or whimper. Tarot Sport accelerates.
  3. Under The Radar
    60
    Tarot Sport is an act of patience that pays back the time you actively spend with it. [Fall 2009, p.58]

    Just amazing stuff...really bringing drone back into the discussion when it comes to electronica genres. Great.

    Really overrated and lazy music. It's just a bunch of noise with a beat occasionally thrown over top.
