Aug 4, 2023One of the best albums I’ve heard in a twelve years. Let me post this without typing more words pleaze.

May 2, 2023This is a nice album to get to know in deep how the Nielsons feel the music that makes them. It is a patience walk in an entertaining park where you can see different groups of people using this space to express themselves. Even though they are not interacting with each other as an orchestra would achieve, each one of them is an important part of what makes this band. Nice, mellow and upbeat.

Mar 17, 2023Incredible sonic journey! So groovy, melodic, psychefunk! This album is a masterpiece. Nadja, That Life and I Killed Captain Cook are legendary! Seeing UMO in April, preparing to have my brain melted!

Under The RadarApr 25, 2023Even if V isn't as shadowy or nuanced as its reference point, it's a reminder that sometimes, it's nicest to just sit in the sun for a bit. [Apr - Jul 2023, p.82]

Mar 21, 2023If V betrays decadence, it doesn’t manifest itself as sprawl or poor editing – much less a notional narrative. Its languidness is actually its charm, a direct contrast to almost anything in UMO’s fidgety catalog save “Jello And Juggernauts” from the 2011 debut.

Mar 21, 2023V is a fun, water-glistening record that waves hi to the palm trees and lies down to take a sun-nap with the sleepy sand dunes. Neilson’s reclamation of his identity in the context of space, sound and story is executed beautifully and is heard with authenticity and keenness.
