  1. 8.0 |   Paste Magazine

    Body Faucet shows signs of artistic growth and maturity, yet never at the expense of funkiness
    Read Review

  2. 8.0 |   DIY

    A debut that, although perhaps too varied in places, is a great starting point for the quartet
    Read Review

  3. 7.0 |   Spin

    Vampire Weekend’s younger brahs take MGMT lessons. Killer when catchy, dreary when not
    Read Review

  4. 6.5 |   Bowlegs

    Features enough decent melody and musicality to warrant its existence
    Read Review

  5. 6.0 |   Consequence Of Sound

    It’s definitely enjoyable, but it’s also inconsequential
    Read Review

  6. 6.0 |   NME

    It over-stretches at almost an hour, but Reptar are seldom anything less than deft at being daft
    Read Review

  7. 6.0 |   The Line Of Best Fit

    Ultimately an album of awkward house party music, but not much more
    Read Review

  8. 6.0 |   PopMatters

    Although Body Faucet is a bit inconsistent ... the record is a brave and fairly fantastic debut that will surely grab the attention of those who give it a chance
    Read Review

  9. 5.0 |   The Digital Fix

    A fun and well crafted collection of tunes that will keep the blues at bay, at least for a little while
    Read Review

  10. 4.0 |   musicOMH

    The potential is undoubtedly there, but Reptar’s debut album suffers badly from the band’s chaotic approach
    Read Review

  11. 2.0 |   The Guardian

    Every song borrows from something else, something vaguely similar but different enough to make this an incoherent mess, albeit one with oddball pretensions
    Read Review

  12. 2.0 |   No Ripcord

    At best, this is a summery album with a Talking Heads: 77 influence, with a bit of Animal Collective added on top. But that’s only because of the incredible “influence” of Vampire Weekend
