  1. 10.0 |   No Ripcord

    The best thing about Junior Boys is their ability to play for both teams in the electronic music sport: their songs are catchy and always pleasant while dressed with attention to great technical detail and studio wizardry

  2. 8.0 |   NME

    The suggestion the pair have somehow increased the emotional palette of their repertoire is a red-herring, but this is still a tremendous success.

  3. 8.0 |   Evening Standard

    A welcome addition to intelligent dance pop.

  4. 8.0 |   musicOMH

    You can seemingly approach it either of two ways - the first, an indulgence in a light '80s nostalgia of production and lyrics, or the second, an enjoyment of the way it gets you thinking of rejuvenating your energy for a night out.

  5. 8.0 |   PopMatters

    It’s the band’s oddest collection of songs, which is likely to put a few people off.

  6. 6.0 |   The Guardian

    Several listens are required before each tune reveals its techno/trance/jazz quirks. If you've got the patience, it's worth it.

  7. 6.0 |   The List

    Shamelessly upbeat and dancey 80s beats.
