Alternative PressFeb 23, 2011Like most everything else here, it's a dancing no-brainer. [Mar 2011, p.92]
-
Feb 9, 2011Things are a little different now but like many of their contemporaries, Cut Copy have had to adapt to the landscape and Zonoscope is a considered attempt at a more kaleidoscopic approach.
-
Feb 7, 2011After the ubiquitous presence of '80s-indebted music last year, a follow-up with little stylistic deviation isn't a thrilling proposition: Take Me Over steals a hook from fellow Australians Men At Work, adds ooh-ooh backing vocals and just about gets away with it.

Q MagazineMay 2, 2011Take Me Over makes a misplaced attempt at funk, which grates slightly, but it's hard to dislike the well tuned synths and dreamy choruses of tracks such as Hanging Onto Every Heartbeat. [Apr 2011, p.101]
-
Feb 8, 2011Australian synth-pop quartet Cut Copy do the Eighties eerily well. Too well, in fact. Cue up the band's third album, and you find yourself playing spot-the-influence.
-

-
Feb 11, 2011They throw the kitchen sink into Sun God, a 15-minute odyssey somewhere between LCD Soundsystem and disco, which could probably liven up any living room into an Aussie beach party.
-
Feb 4, 2011Zonoscope is far from an outright failure, just more severe of a backslide than expected.
-
UncutApr 13, 2011This is departure lounge pop--antiseptic, pleasant, with Photoshopped pics of exotic locales scattered around, but none of the hedonism of actually being there. [May 2011, p.82]
