3.5 stars out 5 -- "Guitarist Mike Stroud and multi-instrumentalist Evan Mast give their subtly textured, rockist electronica a more festive, uplifting mood on the duo's third album.", 3 stars out of 5 -- "LP3 is electronica with a playful, anything-goes ethos. The disco squelch and vocoder melodies of 'Falcon Jab' recall Discovery-era Daft Punk...", "The instrumental duo layer an eclectic batch of sounds -- Latin guitars and thumping tablas on 'Mi Viejo,' shimmering chimes and squealing synths on 'Mumtaz Khan' -- into their most dazzling patterns yet." -- Grade: A, "Guitarist Mike Stroud shines like always, with dark, memorable melodies floating throughout each track.", 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "They play instrumental rock propelled by a Nintendo-style tapesty of blips and blurbles....They also have an almost-Baroque sense of melody and counterpoint..."
