    Dull and uninteresting, this album really has nothing to offer. At least Torches was kind of different from most other indie pop. Where they were unobjectionable last time, here they're just unwelcome. I don't really know what happened.

    None of these songs are catchy. There are no potential hit singles in this bunch. I am afraid this group is going to turn out to be a one-hit wonder.

    Equally appropriately, with increased attention comes increased expectations and increased scrutiny, neither of which are met by this sophomore release.

    Much of Supermodel feels alienatingly dense. [May 2014, p.86]

    A couple of pseudo-anthems will likely nurse them through a handful of unearned headline gigs--but in all honesty, the world has no need for pop music this faceless, listless or sterile.
