Apr 16, 2012Fun, if a little two-dimensional.
-
MojoMar 22, 2012Ultimately, it's the combined sound of - there's no getting away from the word - ethereal vocals and cavernous, sometimes even martial dance rock that appeals rather than the detail. [Apr 2012, p.86]
-
Under The RadarMar 21, 2012A very pretty album [but] it's difficult not to see it as a mere specter of School of Seven Bells' potential. [Mar 2012, p.86]
-
Mar 9, 2012Ghostory is well on par with the strident ephemera to which followers of this project have become accustomed.

-
Feb 27, 2012Without the harmonies and counterpoint of sister Claudia to lend interest and texture, Alajandra is left to rely on the instrumental background for support, and frankly there just isn't much going on to help her out.
