"jj have earned a place among the current wave of pop globalization, sharing both the island sounds and sticky-fingered irreverence of their labelmates the Tough Alliance, Air France, and the Honeydrips. Sure, jj still carry traces of iconic twee label Sarah Records, but they celebrate a broader definition of "pop". Sometimes, as on "Lollipop"-biting slo-mo raver "Ecstasy", jj do this by borrowing from global hip-hop culture. But they also participate. Never by straight-up rapping, but by expanding the reach of ambient music-- defined expansively, as Brian Eno once did, as music that "suggests, a place, a landscape, a soundworld which you inhabit"-- to include a whole new kind of swagger." (Pitchfork)


"On that very first listen, I verily gasped and my heart leapt. I can't remember the last time indie rock did that. 8/10" - Popmatters
"Magical experience -- it is necessary to repeat once you get to the end -- with each listen the album gets better, 85/100" - Pretty Much Amazing
"Best new music, 8.6/10" - Pitchfork
"Sweet, sweet mystique!, 4,1/5" - Pin Point Music
