[PRESS QUOTES]:
Rolling Stone: "the band has returned full-force to the expansive synth work that made them underground darlings. Absorbing the ethereal atmosphere of Giorgio Moroderʼs Cat People soundtrack and the skeletal fuzz-bluster of Suicideʼs 1977 melancholy synth-punk blueprint “Cheree,” Head First has an edge thatʼs softer, warmer and dreamier..."
Pitchfork: "Jubilant"
MOJO: “Alison and Will go Stadium. An album of classic pop as evidenced by Rocket, Believer, Alive and I Wanna Life.”
Q: “Rocket is a euphoric revenge fantasy that erupts into glittering Mediterranean disco, Dreaming invokes both Discovery-era Daft Punk and late-period Fleetwood Mac, while the multi-tracked vocals and gleeful pianos of the title track evoke a neon-lit 21st-century ABBA.”
Popjustice: “Something of a triumph all round and anybody who attempts to convince you otherwise is a fool of epic proportions."
