    [A] meaty pop debut album.

    Admittedly it’s hardly a new approach of lyricism, but when something classic is done well it’s hard to discredit.

    Overall, the swagger and sonic brawn get a bit wearying and it’s a shame they don’t show more of the pop nous that glimmers intermittently here.

    Frustratingly, flashes of the wired energy that got them noticed in the first place are few and far between.

    Despite a few too many sanitised, lounge-y moments, overall this is an enjoyable first effort. [Oct 2015, p.102]

    The Making Of is a decent debut. [Nov 2015, p.87]

    Ultimately, those adamant that the mid-Noughties garage-rock revival was the most important thing that's ever happened to music might find something to enjoy from The Making Of, but for the rest of us The Bohicas have produced remarkably unremarkable first effort.

    The Making Of is good for a debut. Nothing innovative, with some licks that have become all too familiar but a decent effort nonetheless. AThe Making Of is good for a debut.
