Jun 12, 2012You'll be mindblowed since the first note of "Need You Now" and the effects' fade-out on the epic "Sun God". These songs are more drawn to the experimentalism from Animal Collective, but it still got some great dance songs, such as "Blink And You'll Miss The Revolution" and "Corner Of The Sky". But the pop songs are worth mentioning too, like "Alisa" and "Where I'm Going".

Feb 19, 2011More dance and less rock than previous albums, but I think this is the best cut copy album yet, and well worth a listen. They won't lose any old fans with this album, and I think they will gain new fans as well. Only complaint is some songs go very long with little change in the repetition, but all the better to dance to at your end of the world party right?

Feb 10, 2011Consistency/innovative/dance-rock inspiring electro pop. Cut Copy is 3 for 3 on career albums and Zonoscope adds a great topping to the trilogy of musical euphoria. If you were expecting In Ghost Colours part 2 with hit after hit, CC responded with this new record full of organic new sounds and they passed with flying colours.

Mar 10, 2011Well...I had a lot of trouble making it through this album. It's pretty bland/boring, and no one song really jumps out. I suppose it would make good background music (noise) but other than that I think they lack spark and energy.

Mar 21, 2011Is this as good as "In Ghost Colours"? No. But that in no way means that this is a bad release by any means. There most definitely is a 80's synth vibe going on and I think they hit the mark for the most part. It's tough for a sophomore album to stand out when the debut release was so strong but that being said I think they hit the nail on the head.

Apr 26, 2011doesn't have the rock/dance feel that made 'In Ghost Colors' so good but an awesome album in its own right. A lot of depth and so many good songs with great progression.

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]

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]

Mar 4, 2011Cut Copy thrives when the ingredients are simple: melody, voice and its influences interpreted.
