Dusted Magazine
Bozulich stumbles through a sagging mansion of sound like Gloria Swanson in Sunset Boulevard, which is to say, arch, elegant and utterly used up. But there is power in the decrepitude.

Tiny Mix Tapes
Bozulich has amassed a band and baptized it with the name of her last record, and together they careen through a broken itinerary of radiant darkness.

Prefix Magazine
Confrontational as Hello, Voyager is, it’s also a carefully constructed work by a group of players that know how to wrench compelling music out of dark places.

PopMatters
Its diversity, boldness and overall quality has compelled me to delve into Bozulich's past work with fresh, enthusiastic ears.

Drowned In Sound
This is a fascinating record that enjoys toying with musical boundaries and unnerving the listener.

Pitchfork
Rife with suspense, drama, and a grisly cast of characters, Voyager's probably more likely to ignite your inner playwright than get your foot tapping, but it's still a cathartic rush all the same.

Bouzilich however, does have some good ideas and there are some very good moments to be found on Hello, Voyager, it's just the convoluted mess of ideas that is the rest of the album overwhelms its strongest points.

Spin
These impressionistic songs shudder to life under the weight of passive-agressive feedback, anchored by Bouzulich's melodramatic howl and Tara Barnes' menancing bass. [Apr 2008, p.96]

The album includes one unreasonably lovely song, 'The Blue Room,' along with two instrumental tracks and several concussive punk-rock tunes.
