Dec 9, 2015Her solo album is indicative of her strength alone, but it also highlights her importance as a member of Warpaint.
-
Dec 14, 2015It shows that she can create a cohesive album by playing out the songs she wrote. But while the poetry and the music are there and played correctly, there is that last little bit of magic missing.
-
Dec 22, 2015Occasionally, right on!'s stripped-down sonics are too restrained for their own good--"white devil" doesn't have the fuel it needs to truly ignite--but more often than not, the album offers a welcome glimpse of Lindberg on her own.
-
Dec 18, 2015Overall, as bass-players solo missions go, Right On! fares well in both connecting to and standing apart from the mothership. Admittedly, the record’s best moments could perhaps have been cherry-picked to fold into the next Warpaint album or compressed into a just EP-length statement.
-
Dec 14, 2015Right on! captures that nostalgia, and rarely, if ever, sounds dated.
-
Alternative PressDec 10, 2015Although there's no shortage of menace and mystery on her goth and dark wave-inspired full-length, these uneasy, creeped-out feelings seep into the unconsciousness only after repeated listens. [Jan 2016, p.95]
-
UncutDec 9, 2015Right On! casts its own seductively austere shadow. [Jan 2016, p.77]
-
Dec 8, 2015It’s a record that’s full of interesting ideas that needs a few listens to appreciate its subtleties, which are ultimately very rewarding.
-
Dec 11, 2015It’s a haunted house whose furnishings, though familiar, come artfully arranged.
-
Dec 8, 2015Lindberg’s range helps the record from feeling too stale. At times, she relies too much on repetition, causing some tracks to feel too familiar to stand out. But, when she shuffles the pieces of her puzzle, the songs are typically the stronger for it.
-
Dec 14, 2015With just a couple of standout tracks, this isn’t earth-shattering stuff--but it will resonate with existing Warpaint admirers, introducing Lindberg’s intoxicating siren call and reminding of the unique potency of her pin-sharp bass playing.
-
Dec 11, 2015Jam is all well and good, but this record is at times lacking in the bread and butter of music--songs.
-
Dec 11, 2015By applying Warpaint’s thin sonic veneer to yet another decade past on right on!, jennylee runs in place rather than moving forward.
-
Q MagazineDec 9, 2015Lindberg is dedicated to atmosphere, and if these songs are disconcertingly hazy as they move through the dry ice, they just about hold a twisted shape of their own. [Jan 2016, p.111]
-
Dec 9, 2015The murky production sucks out some of the dynamics, but a few extra-spirited tracks push above the rest.
-
MojoDec 9, 2015Right On! seesaws between spectral moments of introspection and bristling passages of electric activity. [Jan 2016, p.88]
-
Dec 9, 2015Lindberg’s voice is not distinctive, and her lyrics are either indecipherable or wearyingly vague; in fact, there is really nothing arresting about her presence here.
-
Dec 8, 2015In its best moments, Right On! is a dark, bewitching début that is bound to appeal to fans of Warpaint. Too often, though, its formulas are repeated and sketches left uncoloured to cumulatively less engaging effect.
-
Dec 8, 2015Lindberg’s first solo LP moves in mysterious, often circuitous ways, emphasising mood over melody and aesthetic over dynamic. Which is a polite way of saying that it’s something of a grower, whose charms are revealed like arcane secrets only to those with patience, persistence and a lack of proximity to heavy machinery.
-
Dec 14, 2015It’s all immaculately executed (with help from Warpaint bandmate Stella Mozgawa on drums), just too often desperately unmemorable.
