  1. 9.0 |   God Is In The TV

    Nine tracks, none of the usual instrumental interludes, no filler. It’s all bloody marvellous

  2. 8.0 |   Exclaim

    Another strong effort by a band that continue to celebrate the power of dance music

  3. 7.0 |   Slant Magazine

    Despite Haiku from Zero’s sunny musicality, there’s often a grim, apocalyptic subtext

  4. 7.0 |   All Music

    Full of hooky songs and breathlessly danceable songs. The only thing it is missing is inspiration or invention, which also means it is their least successful record yet as well
