Sep 23, 2014Unlike An Awesome Wave, This Is All Yours does not have strong stand alone songs. But as a full album listened through the in entirety it is amazing and atmospheric.

Feb 11, 2016One of the most creative bands on the planet right now. This is not a hit machine but much more ethereal than Awesome Wave. If they had made another Awesome Wave I would have been more disappointed than I am with this.

Sep 27, 2014I thought the album was great. Very chill music. Nara, Choice, Warm, and Gospel are beautiful. I thought Hunger of The PIne was really cool how he mixed Miley Cyrus' "I'm A Female Rebel" into the music. Loved this album.

Sep 23, 2014Complex, creative and building on their awesome debut Alt-J define their place in the current music scene with their distinctive style. Highlights include "Left Hand Free", "Hunger In The Pine", "The Gospel of John Hurt" and "Warm Foothills".

Sep 23, 2014This album is stellar. 72 seems criminally low for the artistic beauty and varying shades of brilliance that Alt-J has pulled off here. They clearly are studied musicians that have carved out a sound and niche that is unmistakable. There are 5 or 6 tracks here that constitute instant classics, and everything else present lends to a distinct sonic vision from opener to finish

Sep 25, 2014Like the last record and amazing musical achievement by this new band. This band is the future's Radiohead. People who don't like this record are simply too stupid to understand it. 11/10!
-
Sep 23, 2014Not really feeling it this time around. That's too bad because Alt-J's first record was sturdy and fairly solid sounding all together. I'm probably going to end up picking the record up anyway, but still a little bit disappointed.

Oct 11, 2014Alt-J's arty experimentation may be bursting with colour, but overall "This is all yours" feels rather rushed and unfinished, almost like the draft copy of a masterpiece.
-
Mar 20, 2015This album struggles to reach the highs of An Awesome Wave, it feels somehow disjointed and a little repetitious. I'd love to add a solid thunking baseline here and there. Still and all its an enjoyable collection of tunes and The gospel of John Hurt has evocative imagery as good as anything on An Awesome Wave. Solid

Oct 25, 2014An extraordinary sequel made by an extraordinary band. 'This is all yours' its the sound of the future and the proof they evolved as a band. One of the best 2014 albums

Nov 16, 2014I like Alt-J they float my boat and produce credible and quality music in a simplistic way The cd is a gem one of my fave cd of 2014. I not into protensive yak and more yak.

Jun 7, 2015First of all, "Left hand free" is NOT the best this album has to offer...this is a solid album all around, although it seems to take itself just a bit too seriously, with the three "Nara" tracks nobody actually understands what they are about. 8/10—"Hunger of the Pine", "Intro", "Bloodflood Pt. 2"

Apr 5, 201683/100. Really good album by a band that is usually overlooked by people. Alt-J can really put together an album that transports you to a different place, and listening to this did just that. Great album, however there were some songs that felt as if they dragged on and repeated themselves too much. Other than that, more than worth a listen.
-
Jul 4, 2016Although not quite as good as their first album, "This Is All Yours" is a great album as a whole. Once again Alt-J delivers their very unique sound in a way only they can. Songs like "Left Hand Free", "Hunger of the Pine", "Pusher" and "Every Other Freckle" are great hits that can stand alone, but when you listen to this album as a whole that's when you can appreciate how awesome it actually is.

Jul 28, 2018A beautiful sophomore effort; Alt-J outdo themselves on This is All Yours. The gently rising textures of Nara, the soft undertones of Warm Foothills...the album feels as cohesive as its predecessor, with a greater emphasis on melody and tone. The subtlety that characterized An Awesome Wave expresses itself here in drifting currents that elevates you to new planes of emotional complexity.

Nov 6, 2014Alt-J could come off as pretentiously obfuscating but for the overt playfulness within the experimental.
-
Sep 30, 2014They’ve created the rare sort of album that manages to be both familiar and disorienting at the same time, an expansively cinematic experience that remains unpretentiously grounded.

Entertainment WeeklySep 29, 2014The plethora of headphones-friendly tones frequently overshadow melodies that feel less than fully developed. [3 Oct 2014, p.69]
