    Never Enough is laser-focused on doing the simple things to perfection: guitar, bass and drums in service of verse-chorus-verse hooks that will rattle around your head for days with rakish, disreputable charm in spades.

    There’s no bedroom R&B auteurism, rather the perfectly captured sound of 1979/80--this is a band whose wardrobes must be laden with skinny ties and sneakers. But it’s absolutely fantastic.

    The Crystals, Ramones, Blondie, Television, The Strokes, The Walkmen and the Friends theme all feed into Never Enough, their suave, glitter-ball garage pop debut, full of synapse-shagging surf punk melodies like Summertime, In Our Blood and I Don’t Wanna Live In California.

    This is an album which very much belongs in 2016, and an expectedly assured debut from a band who are by no means redefining the sound of New York City rock ‘n’ roll, but are laying claim to being worthy flag bearers of it going forward.

    Though Never Enough certainly succeeds in providing classic infectious rock that sidesteps the often formulaic glaze of contemporary pop, above all else, it's just great fun.

    Earthly's songs of early-20-something kicks and empowerment prove enduringly infectious over repeated listens. [Dec 2016, p.113]

There has been a wealth of superb music released in 2016, but much of that has been from artists like Leonard Cohen and Bon Iver, who aren't exactly known for making "upbeat" albums. Listen to this, like I am, tonight, and remember the wonderful times you've had in 2016, and anticipate the magnificent year to come.… Expand
