    Imagine Bauhaus' "Terror Couple Kill Colonel" massaged by classic 4AD discord and you have the mysterious blend of On! Air! Library!
  2. Alternative Press

    If Lush hadn't died, it might have wound up in the same solemn, yet provocative, place. [May 2004, p.104]

  3. Dusted Magazine
    70
    What this self-titled debut is, though, is two different albums (EPs, really): one of wavering delicacy, the other of focused riffage.
  5. No Ripcord
    70
    They honestly sound like no other known band.
  6. Pitchfork
    80
    While alternating between derivative and rudimentary, On!Air!Library! is nevertheless well executed in its obviousness.
  7. PopMatters
    70
    An ambitious mishmash of musical styles; it wavers from time to time, but to their credit, the record never derails.
  8. Tiny Mix Tapes
    90
    Albums of this caliber just don't come around that often.
