Aug 11, 2011An album which tries so hard to hit different bars actually ends up sounding frustrating, uncertain and loose. Had pretty high expectations and it all came up short.

Apr 26, 2011I found the album to be well done, the music does pull you into it, however, nothing really stood out, which was my problem with it. It all seemed to be around the same level, and became a little boring towards the end of listening. I listened to it once, and found it was a good album, but I have no intentions of listening to it again...I prefer his work with Animal Collective much more.

May 19, 2011Tomboy's an ambitious work that finds its power and grandiosity in the slightest moments – an album that demands headphones, yet equally compels to crank the stereo.

MojoMay 17, 2011Rather than gaining urgency Tomboy instead feels rhythmically constrained and sonically muted. [May 2011, p.100]

Q MagazineMay 17, 2011Such is the electronic murk elsewhere, it feels better to dabble your toes in this record than plunge right in. [May 2011, p.120]
