  1. 8.0 |   The Skinny

    Nicely balancing moments of all-out rock and melancholic, reflective electronics, it's a consistently strong first foot

  2. 8.0 |   Art Rocker

    There’s more chance of Team Ghost soundtracking The Killing than Made in Chelsea, but that can only be a good thing, surely?

  3. 7.0 |   DIY

    If you were expecting a post-rock album, you've come to the wrong place; this is something sharper, more accessible, sure, but no less clever

  4. 7.0 |   Uncut

    Occasionally suggests Tangerine Dream colliding with My Bloody Valentine. Print edition only

  5. 7.0 |   NME

    Skyscraping choruses, shoegaze swirls and jackhammer riffs all colliding in an epic dreamscape

  6. 5.4 |   Pitchfork

    A few too many other tracks, such as "Away", compensate for thin material with sheer bluster, and they can feel unwarrantedly grueling

  7. 4.0 |   Consequence Of Sound
