  2. 7.0 |   NME

    This reshuffle – in 'Decency's best moments - adds bite to the band's Orange Juice-inflected jangle

  3. 7.0 |   The Music

    No epic ten-person choruses, no complicated breakdowns, no eye-rolling best-day-ever festival fodder, just classic Clash-style hooks and clean, smart songwriting

  4. 7.0 |   The 405

    This album is catchy. There is nothing wrong with writing catchy songs. Melody matters. Listenability matters

    Still work to be done here to fully locate their USP. Print edition only

The Austin duo’s hushed and unassuming double album is a capstone to their career so far, a scrapbook of moments of love and loss from a life well-lived Pitchfork

The pair have fully blossomed from their early DIY start, showcasing an incredible range of indie pop craftsmanship and a grounded centredness built on empathy and understanding Exclaim
