    The songs dive off in unexpected directions, but remain linear. [Nov 2012, p.87]

    "Powerful" is perhaps the most fitting word, and though the strength of certain arrangements can feel all-engulfing, there are too many moments of near-inexpressible, extravagant brilliance on The Silicone Veil to deny Sundfør's overall accomplishment.

    Sundfør's combination of careful, detailed arrangement and unrepentant magic realism is visionary and enriching.
