May 6, 2015The album is a true meeting of mood, melody, and sound that any of the bands Death and Vanilla so clearly take inspiration from would be proud to call one of theirs.
-
May 6, 2015The band's fondness for over-long outros means that it occasionally drifts, where a tighter edit would have made it soar. But for the most part this is an entrancing album of spectral lullabies.
-
May 6, 2015This is a well-crafted album that manages to reach some rare sonic ground save for a few missteps. The band works best when it is allowed to let the songs build and layer over one another.
-
May 6, 2015As a whole, To Where The Wild Things Are is very much a headphones-record, as its richest details can only be absorbed with closer-than-close listening.

UncutMay 6, 2015The duo's third add little to territory explored by Broadcast and Sterolab, but there is still an alluring soft-porn sexiness to avant-Kraut Moog-pop excursions. [Jun 2015, p.75]
-
MojoMay 20, 2015Death And Vanilla lack only a little warmth to make submersion in their pre-digital pool irresistible. [Jun 2015, p.92]
-
May 6, 2015To Where the Wild Things Are proposes an interesting if familiar journey, but the kitschy, “poppier” first half feels oddly lifeless.
