    Something On High is earnest, intelligent and more than anything, sincere.

    Even when he doesn't quite get the dynamics right, Sivu's gift for melody never deserts him.

    He ought to save the apologies and descend into full-on self-loathing mode more often.

    Something On High could definitely do with just a pinch more of life at times.... But regardless of this, it is still an incredibly powerful debut from Sivu.

    The production aims for James Blake levels of subtlety but frequently falls short (though songs such as Better Man Than He are undeniably catchy). Page’s lyrics, too, could use some refinement.

    Something on High obsesses on matters of faith, most compellingly on "Bodies," a dystopian reimagining of the Ark story. [Nov 2014, p.83]
