    Why is this album an amazing piece of work? Well, let me tell you, this album managed to add all that pop and dreampop were in the last decade. With soft and well-aimed voices, we travel through ballads like Hard For A Man and Peppermint which show the combined vocals and lyrical richness. Hope to see more in their next album.

    Although it's kinda flat sonically, it's correct and listeneable synthpop, and it does achieve the gloriously soothing quality of a dream pop record.

    Consistently melodic, it’s packed full of hooks and almost suspiciously on-trend.

    At times, Lucid Dreaming can get a little too hazy and downbeat for its own good, but as a portrait of a duo in motion, it suggests Say Lou Lou are heading in the right direction.

    These songs ache with longing, and Lucid Dreaming possesses a strange allure that goes far beyond the sum of its parts.
