Reviews
3 stars out of 5 -- "Structural sophistication and melodic savvy now figure alongside intensity and drive....A sharp effort.", 3 stars out of 5 -- "With chiming lead guitar, melodic prominent bass, and every song rattles along merrily before stopping abruptly, as though the three-minute mark was an impassable forcefield.", 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "Making good on the promise of two nervously explosive EPs, Tokyo Police Club indulge in plenty of echoey atmospherics but also add Foo Fighers-esque blasts of guitar, as if leaping into action and kicking over their chairs.", "Not only does every track feel integral to the overall collection, but there isn't a spare note, drum fill or chorus to be wrung from any one song.", "Tokyo Police Club Tempers Its Tight Jangle with Lyrics on Just the Right Side of Sappy...", 3 stars out of 5 -- "The music is lean, clean and spacious: expertly constructed post-punk miniatures full of ringing guitar and keyboard counterpoint, melodic bass work, and drumming that tilts rock songs...gently toward the dance floor.", "Each track a potential single, these guys don't hang around, going straight for the jugular, blasting out soaring indie rock nuggets honed by endless touring."
