  1. 7.2 |   Pitchfork

    No Mas can't top those longer mixes, which remain van Buskirk and Langford at their sample-heavy, genre-trotting finest. Dressed up and chopped into discrete chunks, Javelin suddenly bear a close resemblance to the Go! Team-- skilled peddlers of vintage party jams, but with a narrow range

  2. 7.0 |   musicOMH

    An oddly compelling listen, in the sense that you're never quite sure whether what you're hearing is amazing or awful. They may be a faceless dance duo but thankfully their music more than makes up for it

  3. 7.0 |   Drowned In Sound

    Javelin don’t yet possess the same kind of wit and invention of their most obvious forbearers, but there’s enormous potential here

  4. 7.0 |   PopMatters

    If No Más is just Javelin finding their footing, there is no telling what’s next

  5. 7.0 |   Rave Magazine

    If it’s a good time you’re after, call Javelin: they may not be as lithe as they once were, but they’re still doing it right

    Despite all its sparkly, visceral indulgence, No Más serves mostly to remind us that maybe there wasn't that much potential there to begin with
