    While some may still find Fanfarlo's sound too inoffensive to get its hooks in under their skin, Let's Go Extinct is an undeniably ambitious, energetic and bombastic effort.

    Less production allows the songs to breathe, but while the arrangements are often clever, the melodies aren't all that sticky. [Mar 2014, p.93]

    Fanfarlo may not be breaking new ground with this, but they’re building on their previous foundations nicely.

    Let’s Go Extinct isn’t the breakthrough that will earn them that big wave of new press, but it’s good enough to warrant some recognition.

    You can’t deny that their intentions are good, but Let’s Go Extinct really is just missing that certain spark that’s required to lift it above the middle ground.

    Fanfarlo should still be around for a while; you only hope they can make more of an impression in the future.
