Aug 8, 2017It is definetely flawed, a bit lazy at some points, a bit too "art-poppy" at other points, but it shows just so much potential and enthusiasm that you start to enjoy it without even noticing, humming "Photoshop Handsome" on your way home.

Jan 12, 2013An original, experimental debut album from Everything Everything rivals the likes of Coldplay and Radiohead in terms of quality and structure. It tries something completely different every 16 bars and yet isn't exhausting to listen too. A very solid album from start to finish.

EE are wilfully eccentric, and endlessly entertaining, but they know more than most how to craft a song, how to make an album.

This band has a ways to go: they can write more substantial, affecting music than this, their songcraft can indubitably be tightened up. But I think maybe it's Man Alive's sheer confidence that makes me feel alright about saying that: this is a band going places.

It's comparable to Late Of The Pier's debut Fantasy Black Channel; a lot on show but with hints of greater achievement. But Man Alive is a step up from that. It could well be their masterpiece; their scatterbrained work of art.
