reviews:
"Comparisons of HSCS are inevitable - but this is gentler bedroom indie with layers of lush instrumentation... Proof that sometimes it can be an idea to give up your day job" - Plan B
"Delectable slices of symphonic pop... a bracingly enjoyable set." 7/10 - Rocksound
"Scratchy guitar, drum machine and synthesizer...turning out the sort of breathless indie (think Bright Eyes, Los Campesinos! Xiu Xiu) that twitches and flinches and bruises at the touch...it's bracing like a fistful of caffeine pills" - NME
"It doesn't dissapoint. It has that feel of one man at work you find on all the best solo albums... the rhythm box ticks away under tumbling guitars and semi-distorted vocals delivering snap shot songs. Nice one, Tom." - Artrocker
"A love note to 90s indie... the album pulls together disperate influences and indie/folk/electro sounds, blending them, with sweeping strings and the overtones of joy, heartbreak and touches of Idlewild. Lovely." - Kruger Magazine
"It's inventive and packed with twists and turns, but with pop with a capital P running all the way through all eight songs in one way or another... you will love this." Plus One Magazine
"Tom Denney has risen from the ashes of Help She Can't Swim to bring us this slice of lo-fi, heartfelt and at times explosive electro-pop" 4/5 - F**k Magazine
"The music veers between peppy, in-vogue, synth-based pop and new-folk laments... The boys got a chance." - AU Magazine
"Musically more accomplished and eclectic than Help! She Can't Swim... Somehow infusing the emotion of Bright Eyes or Onelinedrawing, the tenderness and honesty of gigging buddy Casiotone for the Painfully Alone, the coolness of Bloc Party and synths to almost rival Presets, Denney's deliverance is outstanding. Whether he is spitting out lyrics with venom or softly presenting his words, Denney seems to be intuitive in just how is best to say this, that or the other. When wrapped cleverly around the vast mix of sounds that have been used on this album, it makes for a very fun, interesting ride." - Subba-Cultcha
"This is actually a project with much potential... there is some real feeling, flair and flavor... you might soon have your new favourite band here." - New Noise
"Machine + guitar + emotion = ace" 7/10 - This is fake DIY
"Masterful... a lovely little album that reminds you what it's like to worry too much about all the things that you get used to... It's indie, people, just the way you like it." - Unpeeled
