  1. 8.0 |   The Guardian

    Pleasant enough, but Lindstrøm then levels up in the final third, with Drift, a hail of petals that recalls Orbital’s Belfast

  2. 8.0 |   All Music

    Delivers the type of lush, cheerful disco Lindstrøm has always been known for, but there's a much darker undercurrent present here, and it feels like one of his most emotionally complex works yet

  3. 8.0 |   Mojo

    Finds the Stavanger native matching more vocals to his grandiose productions. Print edition only

  4. 8.0 |   Mixmag

    This new album works hard to add several new jams to his inimitable canon

  5. 7.5 |   The 405

    Even if it’s not as mesmerizing as his peak, he can still be captivating

    A sort of rom-com rendered in space disco

  11. 6.0 |   PopMatters

    Favors polished professionalism and sharp arrangements over risk-taking, so while there aren’t any duds, there aren’t any of the special moments that got Lindstrøm to this point in the first place

  12. 6.0 |   Clash

    While buddy Todd Terje's sole studio release ‘It’s Album Time’ made waves due to its great humour and prevailing sense of quirkiness, this latest from Lindstrøm weighs to heavy on the pedestrian side

  13. 6.0 |   The Skinny

    It’s Alright Between Us… will do its job, but on the cheap
    Read Review

  14. 6.0 |   Exclaim

    Frankly still a pleasure to hear Lindstrøm masterfully keep everything in check, but there's a distinct lack of the full-throttle joyousness that he's capable of

  15. 6.0 |   The Line Of Best Fit

    Perhaps the wildly-inventive producer isn’t inspired to break the mould, or to look for a new direction, but he is a producer sure to contrast this low with a high next time

  16. 6.0 |   The Observer

    Pleasant but powerful dance workouts
    Read Review

  17. 5.0 |   Slant Magazine

    A complacent album of stylishly produced half-measures that never quite coalesces into anything meaningful
