  1. 8.5 |   Under The Radar

    Moving from sleek disco to dark-hued punk and beyond without ever missing a step or losing its charm

  2. 8.5 |   The Line Of Best Fit

    An unexpected treasure
    Read Review

  3. 8.0 |   Mojo

    Serves up a lovely, liberated tonic in dark times. Print edition only

  4. 8.0 |   Uncut

    Opener "Colour Of Water" is a near-perfect piece of electro-pop, at once wistful and joyful. Print edition only

  5. 8.0 |   musicOMH

    Elinor Dougall has obviously taken her time to get this album sounding just as she wants
    Read Review

  6. 8.0 |   God Is In The TV

    Modern indie music can often sound stale or uninspired. Dougall avoids these trappings as she’s refined her gothic dream pop sound whilst maintaining her pop sensibilities
    Read Review

  7. 8.0 |   All Music

    She may not have the range of a Roísin Murphy yet, the raw emotion of Robyn's best work, or the glam explosiveness of Goldfrapp, but she's not too far behind, and if she makes more albums like Stellular, it won't be long before she's joining their rarified class

  8. 8.0 |   The 405

    For a long time, many have hoped that this was the album she was capable of producing
    Read Review

  9. 8.0 |   Drowned In Sound

    A record that rarely puts a foot wrong, from the twitchy post-punk disco of ‘Closer To Me’, to the Morodo-ish actual disco of ‘All At Once’

  10. 7.5 |   Gig Soup

    A set of sweet, heartfelt synth-pop tunes that contain a bracing amount of emotional richness and poetic lyrics
    Read Review

  11. 7.2 |   Pitchfork

    An impressive trove of lovelorn pop music
    Read Review

  12. 7.0 |   Loud And Quiet

    With ‘Stellular’ it feels like the ex-Pipette has really found her niche
    Read Review

  13. 6.0 |   The Guardian

    Her mystery and malady are communicated best on dreampop tracks Hell and Back and Colour of Water; moments of spaced-out, doomed romance on an album that’s otherwise a little too long and indulgent
    Read Review

  14. 6.0 |   The Irish Times

    Languid yet composed, Stellular is a largely confident return to the action
    Read Review

  15. 4.0 |   The Arts Desk

    For the most part, everything’s just too fluffy and forgettable
