  1. 9.0 |   The Observer

    Aglow with creative energy and eccentricity, this is beautiful stuff.

  2. 8.0 |   The Times

    Understated loveliness and a childlike innocence that is never cloying

  3. 8.0 |   Mojo

    Print edition only

  4. 7.0 |   Drowned In Sound

    Isn’t quite the gaudy-T-shirted teambuilding horror it threatened to be. But Múm would do well to note that a quiet, solitary hum can be just as stirring as a rousing chorus.

  5. 7.0 |   Rave Magazine

    This is an earthier, more inviting múm – either an attractive or disappointing prospect, depending on where you stand with these wide-eyed Iceland natives

  6. 6.0 |   Q

    Print edition only

  7. 6.0 |   musicOMH

    These twelve tracks make for diverting and beguiling company for the fifty or so minutes spent with them.

  8. 6.0 |   The Guardian

    A sweet hotpot of northern European record-making.

  9. 5.0 |   FasterLouder

    They are capable of better than this and hopefully like their homeland they will soon be facing in the right direction

  10. 5.0 |   PopMatters

    The unavoidable truth is, Múm is struggling to find itself. For a band that once incited cultish adoration, changing directions is a very risky, but necessary, move

  11. 3.9 |   Pitchfork

    An entirely peaceful, largely melancholy, and clearly well-meaning record. Unfortunately, it's also filled with bewildering decision after bewildering decision.
