Jun 5, 2017On Electric Lines, the fine moments are bountiful.

May 10, 2017While there’s nothing on Electric Lines to match the heart-stopping brilliance of Gabriel or even be as sheer fun as much of The 2 Bears record was, it will satisfyingly sate anyone who feels they’ve been waiting too long for a new Hot Chip album.

MojoApr 17, 2017Not as humorous as 2Bears nor as wistful as Hot Chip, here Goddard further explores the potency of the danncefloor combined with intelligent, leftfield pop. [May 2017, p.92]
-
Apr 21, 2017Despite a little sagging in the middle third, Electric Lines is a fine club-friendly album to spend the summer with.

Apr 18, 2017We are ricocheted between smoky soul, verdant groove, and tantalizing pop-electronica. [Apr-Jun 2017, p.80]

Apr 17, 2017Though solidly enjoyable, Electric Lines could have benefitted from some more concretely original ideas to propel it forward. But when Goddard taps into his love for house, disco, and techno, his enthusiasm radiates through the speakers.

Apr 21, 2017Even if Goddard is occasionally too reverent on Electric Lines, his love of electronic music--and the way it brings people together--is undeniable and infectious.

UncutApr 17, 2017There may be too much on Electric Lines--including Jess Mills, American nwo R&B upstart Daniel Wilson and an uncharacteristically low energy Taylor on the title track. [May 2017, p.30]

Apr 20, 2017Like a kid in a candy shop, Goddard has indulged in a selection splashed with dazzling colour; but the results are pic’n’mixed.

Apr 28, 2017The album (somewhat) finds itself towards its end, where Goddard’s sonic explorations and falsetto, paired with simple drum work, are better suited.
