Sep 30, 2016These songs [The Trapper and the Furrier, Tornadoland, and Obsolete] are, ironically, more cinematic than anything found on her last album ‘What We Saw From The Cheap Seats,’ and that sense of drama helps make Remember Us To Life a return to form.

Sep 29, 2016As a whole, Remember us to Life feels a little patchy, with enough ups to make it good, but too many downs to make it great.

MagnetNov 16, 2016Spektor's knack for orchestral arrangement is more vivid than her writing here. [No. 137, p.61]

MojoSep 27, 2016She still meanders between electronic-infused pop, Eastern-tinged R&B and AOR balladry, but crisp production and Spektor's pliant, atypically measured vocals keep things focused. [Nov 2016, p.89]

Sep 28, 2016On Remember Us To Life, Regina Spektor exhibits stronger affinities with Randy Newman, thanks to a turn of phrase often leaning towards the ironic, and a deceptive worldview which, like the sardonic string arrangements and ominous piano settings, gives most of these songs a slightly sour sting in the tail.
