Jun 3, 2015Even at its most mournful, this is an album charged by bright ideas.
-
May 22, 2015Highlights is a step forward for the band and with a bit of patience, its personality begins to show.
-
May 22, 2015Highlights finds the former remix project paring down to less imaginative drum/guitar basics, sounding like a 5 a.m., post-Tiki party K-hole, or sex with a Cabana boy you thought for sure would blow your mind--and then just laid there like a starfish.

Jun 3, 2015While Highlights still has many moments of unapologetic fun where Emm and Cohen sound like they could write those gorgeous, summery songs in their sleep, they have also rebuffed and polished their signature sound to the point where every attempt at deeper songwriting gets lost in the gloss.
-
Jun 25, 2015There's nothing especially memorable on offer, and a lyrical artlessness becomes obvious as the album continues.
-
May 22, 2015They’re modest songs for modest moments, occupying the space between the hookup and the breakup, of getting hired and getting fired, that manageable lovesickness, regret, and anxiety that underlie just about every URL and IRL interaction.

May 22, 2015While there is nothing abhorrent about Tanlines’ pleasant sophomore effort, it seems their passion was supplanted by force of habit.
