    Revels in mashing up the last 60 years of popular music into one small package of positivity
    Read Review

  3. 8.0 |   Q

    As well as the baggy fore bearers, file it next to their similarly psych'd out co-nationals Tame Impala. Print edition only

    While Jagwar Ma may not be "the second coming", they are the kings of summer

    Read Review

    Read Review

    Equally uplifting and calming, it's the dancefloor via the beach

    Read Review

  11. 8.0 |   Mojo

    The kind of pop music that works in any era. Print edition only

  12. 8.0 |   All Music

    Howlin is good enough to make you forget most of the bands they were influenced by too, as it both embraces and somehow transcends the '90s in a flash of sound and vision
    Read Review

  13. 7.7 |   Pitchfork

    It’s silly enough to cause skepticism and charming enough to make you wonder what kind of scrutiny Screamadelica or Thrills, Pills & Bellyaches would meet if they were released in 2013
    Read Review

  14. 7.2 |   Beats Per Minute

    Mindlessly hummable and pure of vision, Howlin’ sounds just as good coming from your headphones as it does from Marshall stacks
    Read Review

  15. 7.1 |   AltSounds

    A brilliantly miss-matched, muilti-coloured ball of hedonistic energy and darkly-tinged fun perfectly set for festival crowds
    Read Review

  16. 7.0 |   God Is In The TV

    The dumbest piece of dancefloor fun since the heyday of Fatboy Slim
    Read Review

  17. 7.0 |   Uncut

    Sit on the cusp between classicist indie rock and dance music. Print edition only

  18. 7.0 |   Loud And Quiet

    The melodies on ‘Howlin’ are intoxicating
    Read Review

  19. 7.0 |   PopMatters

    Put this album on at your next party and watch it transform your domicile in to the most exciting club on the planet
    Read Review

  20. 7.0 |   Under The Radar

    Luminously lit melodies led by anagogic lyrical structures
    Read Review

  21. 6.0 |   The Observer

    These grooves are floppy-limbed, loosely propelled by basslines that sound like ones Ian Brown left behind under a pub table
