“Canadian trio revitalise 1980s indie touchstones... What would have happened if the second half of the 80s had defined much of what came next? Tallies provide the answer – these nine tracks are that good. ‘Am I The Man’ has a Smiths-like swirl but there’s an animation which could only be created by a band whose energy draws from existing in the present.” MOJO – 4 stars ****
“There’s no doubting this Toronto quintet’s second album’s debts. For many, though, they’ll be welcome to debts: to The Smiths, The Sundays and early Cranberries. That said, Wound Up Tight adds unexpected fury and Memento add subtle layers of fuzz, but Hearts Underground’s summery jangles and Am I The Man’s lilting vocals prevail.” Classic Pop – 4 stars ****
