    Third albums are often career-killers, exposing a band's lack of ideas. No worries here, though; Surf City sound like they still have another few years of greatness left in them.

    Surf's up, and deservedly so. [May 2015, p.112]

    Overall, the Jesus and Mary Chain's pop noise and the easier ride of Spiritualized could be seen as touchstones, though Surf City generally maintains an energy level that allows for dreamy coasting but without nodding out. [Apr - May 2015, p.87]

    Properly chillaxed, the boys then go from Jekyll to Hyde and reveal their pop chops (and Britrock knowledge) with a handful of winning, Johnny-Marr-by-way-of-Felt janglers.
