    Quilt doesn’t merely revisit retro glories on Plaza; it infuses them with contemporary indie-rock energy and melodic dissonance to create an edgy and engaging hybrid. [No. 129, p.59]

    In boldly delving into their pop sensibilities, the group have created an album that encompasses their intriguing convictions for different genres and refined it into a record of high quality.

    As with all of the songs on Plaza, when the sum of that triptych of voices converges, it’s really a beautiful thing to hear.

    It is a record from another era, one that deepens and expands with each consecutive listen. [Jan/Feb 2016, p.58]

    If Plaza doesn’t wholly satisfy from start to finish, it’s more than a mere transitional album. Call it a pathway forward that’s anything but straightforward, and is all the more beguiling because of its asymmetrical digressions.

    Plaza, finds them bedding down with a more cautious and concise approach. [Mar 2016, p.78]

    It’s true that Quilt have tightened their sound and clearly production values are high across the whole of Plaza. But sadly, in lieu of a more unified sound or approach, their music might be doomed to be like an actual quilt--with all the filling annoyingly on one side.
