  1. 8.0 |   Exclaim

    Her solo album is indicative of her strength alone, but it also highlights her importance as a member of Warpaint

  2. 7.5 |   The 405

    There is '80s and '90s New Wave and Goth stylings riddled throughout the album. While the bass isn't necessary at the forefront, it is the driving force of rhythm

  3. 7.3 |   Pitchfork

    More focused than the last Warpaint record, right on! is subtle, with the softness and density of cashmere

  4. 7.0 |   The Line Of Best Fit

    She plays around with the sound of her alma mater, taking it to both mellower and more frenetic places
    Read Review

  5. 7.0 |   Loud And Quiet

    For every grinding bass line and neo-noir soundscape there’s a splash of child-like frivolity round the corner
    Read Review

  6. 7.0 |   Uncut

    Early Cure, Salem and The xx are kindred spirits, but Right On! casts its own seductively austere shadow. Print edition only

  7. 7.0 |   Under The Radar

    Takes the hazier, groove-ridden constituent of her band's sound and drives it further into the night time
    Read Review

  8. 6.7 |   Consequence Of Sound

    In finding her voice, Lindberg is able to craft an impressive debut that does more than sound like a lesser version of her main band

  9. 6.7 |   A.V. Club

    On her solo debut, Lindberg sheds her surname and much of the hypnotic beauty that characterizes her main band, emerging with a set of bleaker, tauter, more tangled-up tunes

  10. 6.0 |   The Irish Times

    In keeping things deliberately minimal and compact, Lindberg has staked out an addictive patch of sound – and found her voice

  11. 6.0 |   DIY

    Jam is all well and good, but this record is at times lacking in the bread and butter of music - songs
    Read Review

  12. 6.0 |   The FT

    Songs move along in a haze, propelled by Lindberg’s bass and drumming from her Warpaint colleague Stella Mozgawa. The effect is not designed to soothe

  13. 6.0 |   PopMatters

    Applying Warpaint's thin sonic veneer to yet another decade past on right on!, jennylee runs in place rather than moving forward
    Read Review

  14. 6.0 |   Evening Standard

    Will intrigue existing fans
    Read Review

  15. 6.0 |   State

    Hopefully jennylee will gain confidence in her own clear musical talent and find her own distinct voice for the next offering
    Read Review

  16. 6.0 |   Mojo

    Elegantly haunted pop. Print edition only

  17. 6.0 |   Q

    If these songs are disconcertingly hazy as they move through the dry ice, they just about hold a twisted shape of their own. Print edition only

  18. 6.0 |   Crack

    Her stormy, oblique lyrics don’t reveal a great deal about Lindberg as a person, but right on! as a whole is an intriguing snapshot of exactly where she is as a musician right now
    Read Review

  19. 6.0 |   NME

    It’s something of a grower, whose charms are revealed like arcane secrets only to those with patience, persistence and a lack of proximity to heavy machinery
    Read Review

  20. 6.0 |   The Guardian

    It’s certainly a fun album to root around in, but to find its lasting appeals requires close and repeated listening
    Read Review

  21. 6.0 |   musicOMH

    Lindberg clearly shares her bandmates’ taste for the darker side of post-punk and new wave, which is capably displayed, but there’s little here that stands apart from her work with Warpaint
    Read Review

  22. 6.0 |   NOW

    The murky production sucks out some of the dynamics, but a few extra-spirited tracks push above the rest
    Read Review

  23. 6.0 |   Drowned In Sound

    While Lindberg evokes familiar demons with her spidery bass, the lost knowledge she seeks from the ancients slips from her hands
    Read Review

  24. 4.0 |   Gig Soup

    Fails to hold the attention of the listener and it seems to be more style than substance
    Read Review

  25. 4.0 |   The Observer

    It’s all immaculately executed (with help from Warpaint bandmate Stella Mozgawa on drums), just too often desperately unmemorable
