  1. 8.0 |   Mojo

    Sitting mid-point between chart friendly psychedelia and underground cool, it references Love and The Byrds in its folk punk attitude and silver spidery mood. Print edition only

  2. 8.0 |   Drowned In Sound

    With a wistful tone and strung out poeticism throughout, Allah-Las create a sort of nonchalant nostalgia

  3. 7.8 |   Paste Magazine

    At their best, the Allah-Las still conjure the tones and attitudes of bygone decades, but at its weakest, Worship The Sun degenerates to mono-tempo drone

  4. 7.5 |   The 405

    There is a sense of magic to it
    Read Review

  5. 7.0 |   Uncut

    Worship the Sun is a second slice of impeccable Californian retro-fetishism which subverts ridicule by achieving so spectacularly what it set out to do

  6. 7.0 |   The Line Of Best Fit

    A perfect album to hang onto the last remnants of long, hazy summer days

  7. 6.0 |   NME

  8. 6.0 |   Q

    An agreeable diversion rather than a must-take trip. Print edition only

  9. 6.0 |   The Guardian

    There’s a definite progression in the songwriting and the tunes are soaked in the kind of timeless California sunshine you just don’t get from Brits

  10. 6.0 |   The Observer

    Those beguiled by the psychedelic garage-pop of this LA foursome’s debut will find more impeccable mid-60s nuggets here, as sun-dappled as they are faintly sinister
