Feb 15, 2014http://bit.ly/1f4ogZW The Golden Age is a great debut for Woodkid, though it could have been a lot more. There is filler on here and that removes a lot from the final product. But most of the songs on the record are spectacularly arranged and performed. They really take you to another place and this makes it one of the grandest and most unique records of the year.

Nov 7, 2013The Golden age is certainly not over, infant it is quite a conquest of spaces, the music was like the great escape of the other side of everything made out of iron. Run Boy Run. Ghost Lights. They were all amazing and I cant wait for the next album.

May 28, 2016I'm not a fan of pop music, but this album incorporates orchestral elements very well, and uses the theme 'the golden age' to create an atmosphere, using styles of music often referred with victory in an ancient context, collated with modern pop culture themes to create a magnificent concept album.

Q MagazineMay 13, 2013True, he sometimes overdoes the theatrical flourishes, but high drama is what this record is all about, so he can be forgiven for that. [Jun 2013, p.108]

May 6, 2013The Golden Age often tries to accomplish more than it’s capable of.
