    Dreadful forced zaniness pervades this record while is so unrecognizable from their best work that it's best avoided. The hipsters will love it, but they probably also won't be wondering where the tunes and lyrics have gone.

    The Sunlandic Twins feels like a surprise party that could make a broken-hearted birthday boy smile. [May 2005, p.124]
  2. Some might write off this album as a collection of novelty work à la Ween, but there's more going on here than being goofy for goofiness' sake.

    Most of Twins seems too keenly fascinated by its own intelligence. [15 Apr 2005, p.77]
