    The duo [are] at the top their game, effortlessly weaving the past into the future (and vice-versa) with undeniable skill and refreshing amounts of empathy.

    The playing is astounding throughout, with Barnes and Trost turning a dizzying assemblage of strange instruments into a strikingly cohesive whole.

    While the album stands well on its own, Shadows of Our Forgotten Ancestors provided an essential scaffolding.

    The liberated, enlivened music on You Have Already Gone To The Other World proves they are still one of the genre’s indispensable players.

    Coming on the heels of 2011's stellar Cervantine, Other World feels like it might've been stronger had Trost and Barnes held a few more things back.

    You Have Already Gone to the Other World, produced by Deerhoof's John Dieterich, is their best yet. [May 2013, p.65]
