  1. 8.0 |   The Skinny

    Pop hooks and inventive melodies amongst...a towering Mary Chain-esque wall-of-noise

  2. 8.0 |   DIY

    They might not win any prizes for originality (save for their awesome band name), but the album is most blissfully addictive
    Read Review

  3. 8.0 |   PopMatters

    If they keep this up, it shouldn’t be long before they’re noted for their musical strengths instead of their band name

  4. 7.0 |   AU Review

    Executed with such reverence and verve that the results are genuinely thrilling – the work of killer copycats
    Read Review

  5. 6.0 |   Consequence Of Sound

    There are some conventional melodies and songs buried deep down in the piles of effect-laden guitars

  6. 6.0 |   No Ripcord

    Colour Trip has a great deal of promise about it, and that, it seems, is hard to miss, even through all the noise

  7. 6.0 |   Uncut

    Slacker vocals and punk muscle messing with the narcotic wooziness to appealingly off-centre effect. Print edition only

  8. 6.0 |   The Fly

    A thrilling blend of melodic pop, deadpan vocals, and noise that would make the Mary Chain weep
    Read Review

  9. 6.0 |   Drowned In Sound

    At the very least, the band is a good replication of some of indie music’s most treasured artists, occasionally showing signs that they could flourish into something better in future

  10. 6.0 |   The Line Of Best Fit

    If it’s honestly crafted pastiche you’re after, they’ll do just fine
    Read Review

  11. 6.0 |   The Guardian

    They may not win any awards for originality, but there's just enough invention here for now
    Read Review

  12. 5.0 |   BBC

    Tearing through the My Bloody Valentine songbook for material to brand as their own
